Too Much Either/Or Thinking

There is too much either/or thinking going on. Our neighbors in Kansas are having a big fuss about what to teach kids in their schools. They seem to think that the Theory of Evolution leaves the Supreme Being out of the equation. There is no doubt that evolution exists; we see it all around us every day of our lives. It is obviously the way that the Supreme Being does things. The great thing about evolution is that it explains so very much about life and how it works; but, it doesn’t explain everything. I think it is obvious that there is Intelligence greater than our own in the evolutionary process. As to what children should be taught in school, that depends on whether they are in science class or philosophy class. Any reference to religion should be deferred to the student’s church, so that we maintain the very necessary separation of church and state.
