That site actually sickens me. I spent a few minutes reading it, and the children are being taught NOT to question anything about their lives, and only to believe what they are told.
That's what childhood is all about, in my opinion - discovery of the world. I find it sad that in any place - not just in this case - stuff like this occurs.
I honestly feel these children are being wronged. I do not mean to offend any devout christians reading this post, and perhaps I am missing something, but does teaching children to NOT be curious and form their own opinions about the world stifle them?
But as always, this is simply an opinion.
They have a right to theirs as much as I do mine.
I thought this might be a good topic to discuss.

"Project Dinosaur"
Video: "Mikey discovers a dinosaur bone while working on his science fair project. Realizing that evolution doesn't agree with his Christian beliefs, he resolves to evaluate the theory himself. He must decide what he believes and then have the courage to defend it, even if it means losing the science fair and the respect of his classmates."

We need to train our students and ourselves to ask the right questions.
