Well, Stingy...It certainly seems that you are going to continue to hold onto your title;)

When I stated that evolution is the "denial of Christianity", I MEANT that evolution contradicts creation, thereby denying that God created man in his own image (unless God is a monkey, insect, fish, whatever)...and thereby "denies Christianity"...Notice that I did not mention any of my own personal beliefs regarding any religion...I was making a general statement..I didn't even say that the theory of evolution was incorrect, or even questionable, just that it denies Christianity (which is a fact)..I do appreciate all of the information about it, however

You still can't convince me that any religion is being TAUGHT in public schools

You did make a couple of good points about the selected commandments that pertain only to God

As for the "Thou shalt not kill (how about in self defense?)"..I do believe that it has a basic meaning...The same as saying "We really shouldn't kill each other", which generally doesn't need any explanation, or get any arguments...As far as that goes, your "how about?" can be used for nearly ANY statement...There is an exception to pretty much anything

I still don't believe that the Pledge Of Allegiance is going to recruit any Christians

As far as "being exposed to God"...There are FAR worse things for a child to be exposed to in public schools, and 90% of that comes from the other students, not the teachers...Just ONE of the MANY reasons that I DO homeschool my children;)

I do feel that all that I stated is well within reason

It seems that you are a bit on the defensive lately, Stingy...I do hope that all is well:)
