This isn't directed at me, but what the heck ...

Personally, I don't care what others' beliefs are, as long as they AREN'T hurting me or other people. I think the issue at hand here, with creation science (and some other Bible literalist/Christian fundamentalist beliefs and practices), is that they ARE hurting others, because many of the followers of these tenets are attempting to force them on others. Personally, I'm a big fan of separation of church and state (and IMO, state-sponsored education is included in that).
