The Creator of Intelligent Science Teaching in Missouri |
Creationism is the view that the Biblical account of creation in Genesis 1 is a literal and historical description of the creation of the universe. Textbooks provided by Accelerated Christian Education, such as Scientific Creationism ("to show students the fallacies of evolution"), are now available for teaching to students in Louisiana schools. Many true Christian Americans believe that the Bible is literally true, and not merely symbolic.
So, What Would American Jesus Do About Teaching Creationism in Public Schools?
It is well known that historical Jesus believed the Old Testament to be literally true. For example, Jesus made references to Abel (Matt. 23:25) and to Noah (Matt. 24: 37-39), who are both mentioned in the Old Testament; ergo, he must have believed the Old Testament to be literally true. And certainly he believed that a Christian nation like ours should adhere to Old Testament pronouncements, such as that troublesome children should be stoned (Deuteronomy 21:18-21), women are worth 30 shekels (Leviticus 27:1-7), newly married men cannot be soldiers (Deut. 24:5), and adulterers must be put to death (Deut. 22:22).

Of course, the Song of Songs is not to be read literally. That homage to sex acts must be an analogy or a poem or something. But everything else in the Old Testament is real and should be taught in public schools as literal truth. And let us not forget there are 76 scripture verses proving the earth is flat. This should be added to the curriculum in schools, too.
