They didn't say "some scientist believe that . . . . " They just made the statement as fact. How is that OK? (scientifically speaking). I am not asking them to read Genesis to public school kids I am saying that they should "effectively" teach an unproven theory as such.
Woah... hold on... the Discovery Channel talking about amphibians and reptiles 300 MYA would be discussing other sciences - Geology & Physics... so now those sciences in addition to Evolutionary Theory are now in question? Is all science questionable because it may contridict Bibilical scriptures? Talking about creatures living 300 MYA involves Nuclear Physics - radiological dating; Geology - the dating and age of rocks in which discoverys have been found, stratification.
