John Scopes was put on trial for teaching his high school class about evolution, in a classroom today, this is the complete opposite. Everybody has their own mind set on how people came to how they are today. Science and religion have never seen eye to eye and on this topic especially. But who's to say that either of these theories are more correct than the other? Nobody. There is not a single person that can tell you their theory is 100% correct, because we don't know. So in a school setting which do you teach? This is not a topic that you can just completely take away to never be discussed because that is not a logical idea. Picking just one doesn't seem right, so why not teach them both?
Teaching both religion and evolution would be ideal because it leaves the student to believe what they want to believe. It gives them a choice and broadens their horizon of knowledge. By learning both they will not be ignorant to the opposing side. I feel this will ultimately end conflict with the topic, because now a choice is given.
Of course actually accomplishing this is not something that can be done overnight. There is always that one person/group that doesn't like the outcome. But I feel this topic will not ever come to a happy conclusion. There are too many different thoughts on how we got here, and how all of this started. Because we honestly don't know mankind comes up with a plethora of different thoughts on the matter, and thats why this topic will never be fully resolved.
