Its also a slippery slope we're dealing with here.

There is an argument to be made that teaching our kids the age of the earth to be 4.5 billion years old is against the parents religious beliefs. So do teachers have to send a note to the parent for that?

This topic has been creeping up slowly in Texas, does this bill in Alberta allow young earth creationists to hold their kids from class when the age of the earth is discussed?
