About 50% of the teachers who gave their opinion think that banning the alternatives to the theory of evolution is counterproductive. They say the ban undermines the respect that students should have in science.

In France, reports Le Monde, secularists and agnostics personalities sounded alarm at the progress of creationism among teachers and students.

Armand de Ricqlès, professor at the College de France, wrote a work to help teachers evolutionists out of the troubles that put them in creationist arguments.

Ricqlès appealed to "react" against this conception, as judged unacceptable in a secular society, inspired by the French Revolution, creationism may have the current expansion.

Evolutionists could present convincing arguments, instead of trying to stifle the positions creationist or "intelligent design".

    1. Unfortunately, nothing surprises me about the poverty of spirit of men and women today.
      Humanity is not to be aware of their deepening degradation, which is carrying every day human beings are most unhappy.
      Unfortunately our governments and leaders in general do nothing to change this trend no doubt will lead to a very sad and unwanted final unless our Holy Mother Church with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit may in some way to touch the soul of men and they again feel the happiness that can only be achieved when in the grace of God.
      I can attest to what I say, because I've spent periods away from God and I felt the loneliness of the soul that only produce great unhappiness and a real loss of meaning in our lives and the environment that God created for us all.
      Brothers I pray we can all make us stronger and more happy in the love of the Father and Jesus have just as our only reference for the duration of this sad and sometimes very hard journey po this world.
      A fraternal embrace,
      Concha Thomas Saunier
