Quote from: "Kidnapkid"I once had a science teacher refuse to teach me anything after finding out I was an atheist. She just blatantly ignored me or told me "It's not her job to teach, it's my job to learn." There was a big difference in the class before my outing and after. I still passed, mostly because I think I already knew more than my teacher and can/could always pass tests. We didn't have evolution or creationism in my high school. It was just left out completely (either by my teacher or because of curriculum, I have no idea which.) I mostly came to my knowledge of evolution from tv shows and outside reading.

Seriously, I think she actually might have done you a major disservice if she felt she had to teach you whatever anti evolutionary theory she believed in.

It's really quite unbelievable that a biology teacher wouldn't accept evolution. It's the most comprehensive biological theory there is, and the unifying theory of biology. How can a person think they understand the science if they don't accept evolution? This sort of thing baffles me, really.  :hmm:

Remember, your inability to grasp science is not a valid argument against it.
