Darwinism should not be presented at schools as the only scientific hypothesis of human origin, said the Secretary of the Moscow Patriarchates External Relations Department Michail Dudko. Obviously, this theory may be taught in school but not as the only scientific view on the origin of the world. Besides, Darwins theory contradicts Christian ideology according to which our world was created and did not evolve gradually. The official also noted that the Churchs point of view had the right to be presented in schoolbooks on equal terms with Darwins theory. Dudko made the comments as a court in St. Petersburg started hearings into the lawsuit of a schoolgirl who said teaching Darwins in schools infringed her rights as a Christian believer. The girl, represented in court by her father, also claims that presenting Darwins theory as the only correct theory encroaches her human right to choose the point of view. http://www.mosnews.com/news/2006/10/26/dudkodarwin.shtml [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] =============== Group Moderator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] page at http://magazine.sorabia.net for more informations about current situation in Serbia http://www.sorabia.net Slusajte GLAS SORABIJE nas talk internet-radio (Serbian Only) http://radio.sorabia.net Yahoo!
