Sometimes my teachers try to force thier opinions on us, like they know everything and everything they say is right because they have a college degree. it's like science teachers trying to force thier beliefs/opinions about evolution on Christians.

Evolution should be taught in schools, as it is a scientific theory.
Errr...I may be wrong, but I don't think GGG meant teaching, I meant pushing, which does happen.

But on the subject of Evolution in schools - yes teach it - as a theory, not as a fact as it so-often taught as.
once again, theory doesn't mean it's not a fact. :P

the difference between a law and a theory is that a law states that something happens, and a theory states why it happens.

I know that, but when people use it in that context, it bothers me. :P

What context? My point was that it needs to be taught as a theory, because that's what it is. It is not a proven fact, and there are other theories out there. It's probably the strongest theory, and probably is a fact, although that does not mean you say it is one until it's actually proven

what else would it be taught as besides a theory?

There is no such thing as external absolute undesputed truth, the skeptic will always find something to doubt.

Nothing can actually be "absolute truth" because there is ALWAYS a possibility of everything.

What about the existence of one's own self? Can't that be proven by one's own self, sir?!

But just the fact that I have a conciousness allows me to prove I exist.
