    The First Amendment of the United States Constitution states that, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech…”. Since the amendment says that Congress should not establish a religion or abridge freedom of speech, by only supporting one idea that would be similar to establishing a “religion” because they are favoring one idea and not talking about the other. Many argue that intelligent design violates the constitution because of its religion base but according to the Intelligent Design and Evolution Awareness Center, “Intelligent design is a bona fide scientific theory, and there is nothing stopping it from being taught for the purpose of enhancing the scientific learning of students.” This means that intelligent design is different from creationism because it is based on scientific and empirical data. The facts above state that teaching only one idea would violate the Constitution as well limit the level of scientific learning students…

    Yes it is a book but the evolution textbook is not the only book. Students should be able to choose whether they would like to study evolution or creation not just force one belief upon them. As an example, in Inherit the Wind Bertram Cates is put into jail for teaching evolution to his students when it was strictly against the law; so now think about it. In the country where we live, there is freedom of speech and freedom of religion, but if a teacher were to teach creation in a public school where it is strictly against the law, they would most likely be exactly where Bertram Cates was in Inherit the Wind; be fined, put in jail and put on trial. Many people need to understand that when creation is being taught, it is not meant to offend anyone.…
