Well said, Rob.
The issue isn't what people choose to believe (being a closet mystic myself) but rather what deserves to be included in school science curricula.
Peace be upon you all.

PS Reminds me of that joke about a kid who gets both explanations: the "Adam and Eve created in God's image" theory from Mum, Darwinian evolution "up from the apes" from Dad. Obviously confused, the kid asks his mother to rationalize the apparent contradiction. She explains: "I was talking about my side of the family, your father was talking about his".
