Here in France Creationism is very seldom defended and is nothing but one
of the many manifestations of religious integrism . When in France , land
of the Lights where critical spirit used to be taught in the " Ecoles de la
République " ( I am not at all sure that it is now ... ) , state education
is laic according to the Law Creationism mainly expresses itself in state
public schools where some pupils want to impose the archaic rules and
obscurantist views which their ignorant and narrow-minded clerics
impregnate them with by refusing the teaching of Darwinism and do not
even hesitate , sometimes , to use violence to prevent their teachers from
teaching them what their clerics censure , e.g. sexual education ,
Darwinism , History whether it is critical to their own religion or not in
accordance with their own political views ( even when it is fully supported
and documented ) . Some of them even refuse Physical Education teaching . I
am not at all here to discuss the existence of God nor to say that one
should be a believer or not but in my very humble opinion true believers
should be convinced that God created ... Evolution . Franck Frydman
