High school?

I am a creationist teacher myself. However, my classroom has more evolution/fossil record posters, and a huge geologic timescale chart than a creation-based poster simply because it is very hard to source them. My aim as a life science teacher is to present both evolution and creation theories and point out what has been overlooked in the current ‘evidence’ in both theories. It is not our job as life science teachers to push for either theory to 12-14 year olds.

I came to this website looking for answers but I am disappointed that it has more to do with anti-this and anti-that than what the heading describes.

Because I am old he would come to me with those “life is impossible” probability scenarios and we would talk about conditional probability and the misuse of the multiplication principle. I don’t know if he was ever convinced but we were always good friends. I could give him a t-shirt and he would laugh. Now that I am retired, I will bring something in.
