In the halls
Do you think creation theory should be taught in public schools?
Sarah Heschmeyer, freshman, Sancta Maria Erd Kindered Montessori school
“Yes, because they always talk about being open-minded, but for some reason no one is open-minded to Christianity.”
Mary Holtkamp, eighth-grader, Sancta Maria Erd Kindered Montessori school
“I definitely think they should because it’s the truth, and if they are going to teach evolution, they should teach creation as well.”
Christin Osburn, sophomore, Free State High School
“Probably not, because not everyone believes in God. They shouldn’t teach religious theories in science classes.”
Travis Wick, eighth-grader, South Junior High School
“I think that they should teach all the theories that are out there so that people can decide for themselves.”
Molly Thomas, seventh-grader, West Junior High School
“Probably not in science class, but may be in history or social studies.”
Megan Smith, seventh-grader, WJHS
“Yeah, because it would be interesting to know both points of view.”
Mica Mendez, seventh-grader, SJHS
“Yeah, because you have to have a balance. You have to have both ends of the spectrum to base your opinion on.”
Elisha Hart, seventh-grader, Southwest Junior High School
“I don’t even want to sit through science class as it is, so no.”
