Is Evolution Taught In Public Schools Research Paper

Amanda Anderson June 25, 2015 Evolution Taught In Public Schools

Students in Public schools should be given the chance to learn about the findings of evolution. Individual religious beliefs should not influence any content taught at a school, students need to be knowledgeable about everything. There has been an enormous amount of research done as described in Darwin's " Descent of man". We learn that Darwin had three purposes, proving if man like other species are descended from another form. Explaining the way man has developed and finally evaluating the difference among the human race. People whom are religious are a believer in God and sought this to be a growing problem because they believe evolution is not a fact, only a theory. One would think that in such a modern age people would be more accepting of science.

This is something that should be taught in every school system to keep children knowledgeable of what's around us. The type of evolution specifically is species adapting, when one species evolves over a period of time. Darwin's belief is God did created all, such as the Apes we formed from and that maybe people tend to look so much into a bible and not so much in to the facts and evidence laid out. Darwin's Purpose seems to me to be about giving people knowledge about his findings as he said ,"It has often and confidently been asserted, that man's origin can never be known: but ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by
