“Should Evolution be taught in school?” Miss USA contestants try to answer

June 21, 2011 by Andrew Leave a Comment

When I was shown this video it came with only one comment. That comment was “Yikes”. I was prepared for a horror story. Actually, I was prepared to deal with USA contestants who had been coached that a pro-evolution stance was a dangerous one if they wanted to win.

Some of these answers, I find, are awful. Surely science is a human right? The United Nations has ruled that access to the internet is a human right. Not teaching evolution in school, I feel, is an aberration. However, you’re not here for my personal views. You’re here to see how Miss USA contestants try to answer the question “Should Evolution be taught in school?”

What do you think?

Do you think schools in America should teach evolution? Can you imagine schools in the UK not teaching evolution?

Do you think any of these Miss USA contestants did particularly well or particularly or badly?
