For my entire life I have been subject to a ferocious debate between Lefties and Fundamentalist Christians over teaching Darwinian selection in public schools. There are countless books, endless school district battles and a famous play and movie about the Scopes Trial and Clarence Darrow.
The Fundamentalist Christians argued that Darwin should only be taught as a theory of human development, not as an historic fact.
The shoe is now on the other foot. The Leftie Fundamentalists (as I call them) are arguing that human caused global armageddon is a geological climate fact. The rest of the world, including the old coalition of Christian Fundamentalist argue that the climate armageddon is only a theory based on inadequate computer models and should be taught that way in public schools. Not as a fact.
I'm so glad to see the shoe on the other foot in my old age. Darwinian selection is only a theory, with many variants, but a very good theory supported by lots of data. Global climate armageddon is also a theory, but a bad theory refuted by most of the the reliable data.
