The public schools teach evolution. Some churches and private religious schools teach creationism, but to get a degree in the biological or health sciences requires a working knowledge of evolution.

We believe the two go hand in hand. Perhaps god used evoloution to create the world. It would make a whole lot of sense.

Creationism and evolution are both taught in school, and children are expected to decide which is correct for themselves.
Kentucky and Northern Virginia is a presidential republic, with conservatism (American Conservatism) being popular but liberalism (American Liberalism) being on the rise. This has created a mix of conservative and liberal ideas.

I am a strong supporter of a mixed-market economy, and the United States. I believe LGBT citizens are equal. When it comes to abortion I have rather mixed feelings, however in cases such as rape it should always be allowed.

Evolution is required by law to be taught in schools, and Creation is not regarded as a valid scientific theory, a hypothesis at best. Nonetheless people may practice religious beliefs that hold creationist views in private or at the relevant institutions, such as church.

Creationism and Evolution are both taught in school along with their different versions and weaknesses. Students have the right to believe either one.

Creationism and Evolutionism are both taught, but creationism is much more preferred and evolutionism here contains at least some creationism.

The Cegeanian public education system leaves it up to the parents to teach their children the origin of the earth. 75% believe in creation, though. 20% believe in some form of evolution (theistic or not). 5% are unsure.

Evolution is taught in school, the nation relies entirely on the scientific method. Preaching creationism is a capital offence, and all theist religions are banned.

The Empire of Kanopolis is neutral in this matter, knowing that both creationism or evolutionism cannot be proven yet.

Religious people always state that creationism is the fact of life because it is written on holy scriptures.
Secular people always state that evolutionism is the fact of life because it is closer to logics and ratio.

The theory of evolution by natural selection is almost unanimously accepted as true and the state is secular, therefore no form of creationism is taught in schools and education on biology assumes a materialist cosmological viewpoint.

Evolution is taught in the science classrooms as a demonstrable fact and the thousands of creation myths are taught as part of anthropology courses as part of the mythology of other nations.

The Empire of Espartius officially supports creationism, which is taught in all of the schools of the country. Evolutionism is no more than a "heretical and nonsensical theory" which has been banned in our nation since 1919.

Both evolutionism and creationism are taught as a theoretical study on our schools. We don't base facts on either, nor or they taught as a science, since both cannot be proven.

Save for a small minority (less than 1% of the population), Kringalians don't believe in purecreationism and consider it a backward way of thinking. Most religious Kringalians though believe that their God is responsible for existence itself, but also recognise that evolution is a fact.
