It was. Creationists-IDers are all about "teaching both sides", except when it hurts their feelings.
More hypocrisy from their side - go figure.
Wow, you just completely reverse the facts...and you wonder why I question the integrity of these "scientists"? It does make it easier to support your hypothesis, if you're willing to fabricate your data...

WTF? The whole resolution that started this was written by a creationist who didn't want his feelings hurt because students might be exposed to so someone with a different viewpoint.
So there's reading and science - is there any other skill in which you want to demonstrate your incompetence?

One more time, the resolution doesn't say what you claim.

Beak size increasing 5% during a drought and the finches being left with only hard to crack seeds, and the part of this story that strangely always gets left out, they return to normal with the rains, is not evolution.
But then you believe a lion learning to swim is proof of evolution also.

these are all examples of Micro-Evolution
not Macro-Evolution which is the acutal issue here, that some confuse together on purpose.
2 entirely different things

My apologies to gts if I misunderstand him, but from this thread started by him, it appears he believes the finches and lions are macro examples.

He did make some micro examples above, but he specifically refered to isolation driven evolution (?) in the case of the finches.
