Yes, but it is ********.The Bible is right...

Some can argue the "evolution " actually is a faith based religion.

Keep in mind it is a THEORY, not fact.
Thus, one places his/her faith in that theory.

When I went to school evolution was not an issue.
There was a separation between science and religion.
Creationism was taught in Sunday school and it wasn't a conflict.

I was taught that both could exist at the same time.
That the natural state of things could have more than one truth and that neither truth had more weight than the other.
Each was absolute for its own reasons.

I will just say this,
If any school teaches "evolution " , then they definitely should teach creationism and let the child think and decide for him/ her self.

In history class we were taught Darwin’s “ survival of the fittest “ theory.
In that same context we also were taught about the theory of Maltus.
I went to a very secular school where science and religion were strictly kept apart. I like that.
Here in Belgium religion doesn’t influence the classes students get in school. I think that’s very important. Like Montesqui put it “ the trias politica “ . The three powers need to be secularised from each other to have an honest system. Religion cannot influence any of the three powers either.
I think parents should be free to choose if their child has to be taught any religion at all. A respectful person is a respectful person regardless of if it’s a theist or an atheist.

They are mutually exclusive.
For these exact reasons that I stated to another poster :

The big bang theory and the fact that everything was pangaea ( South-America and South-Africa being one ) can actually be proven. The continents fit into each other like a perfect puzzle. The tectonic plates give us valuable info as well. The big bang theory can easily be proven. Stephan Hawking did quite a bit of research on it as well as other famous scientifics.
The creation theory cannot be proven. No one can prove that the world was created in 7 days.
Or that Eva was a piece of rib from Adam. Especially if you look at the gynaecological reality : the first 6 weeks in the womb every embryo is a girl. After that some develop into boys and some stay girls.
The various sorts of monkeys and pre-humans learn us that the creation theory is not likely ( not to say impossible ) either. The homo habilis, australopheticus afarensis, homo erectus, homo neanderthalensis, homo sapiens sapiens.
New pre-human ape sorts are discovered year after year. Especially in the regions around Ethiopia,...


Both are teached to keep the religious masses quiet, while recognising scientific reality.

So if I may ask, was that in a Catholic setting? I'm just curious to learn if there's a difference in this between Catholics and Christians.

Neither have been proven. The BB nor evolution theories.

I don't think that is the intent of the OP?
She asked a specific question not requiring proof of either concept.
Technically, there also is no proof that Creationism exists nor is there proof that BBT and evolution does not.
Written words are not proof.

Back on topic,
CrystalFairy you can learn a lot by considering the age of the people responding. The trend of these responses tells a lot about how social standards change as time progresses.
It mirrors baseline social attitudes.
These changes in social attitudes within society over time, is evident in other areas as well.
From the type of NEWS presentations we see to how advertising is accomplished.
It reflects changes in the family dynamic and social connection at work, in love and even in how we make war.
It changes how we, as a species, define civilization.
