"Teach science in science class, teach religion is Sunday school." It's easy to look at creation and ID as Sunday morning curriculum as is the classification of anything having to do with God should stay as far away from science as possible. That's an instinct among many people today. The misunderstanding is that science and God are two completely separate things, when in fact most people who believe in God believe that they are completely related. My point is this: those of us who believe in God, believe that He created everything....including science itself. He gave us the minds to understand it, the curiosity to dig deeper, the intellect to form theories, and the intuitiveness to believe or not believe. If we believe that God created science, how would us saying HOW He created it to work not be teaching science in science class? If we use our beliefs to explain how we understand things to be, why keep them separate when it comes to explaining how we understand things to be?
