Funny? Do you think religious schools don't exist?

Please, it's only necessary to think about it seriously for a single moment to realize that a school where children are taught "that the earth is 6000 years old" obviously doesn't exist.

Shouldn't exist. That's different.

Their belief system is based on an a being that can't be sense that banished people to infinite torment for following instincts that he designed them with, then sent part of himself to be tortured and killed as a sacrifice to make up for a curse he put on them, but only if you it was necessary. A ridiculous age of the earth is hardly the craziest thing schools like this teach.
