Journal 23 – Darwin’s Theory Still Will Be Teaching in Polish Schools

The Polish deputy Minister of Education, Miroslaw Orzechowski, said that theory of evolution is a “lie” and “fable of a literary nature”. He considered, in a during newspaper interview, that Charles Darwin’s theory should be purged from the school curriculum.
However, the Minister of Education, Roman Giertych, a leader of ultra-Roman Catholic League of Polish Families, said that he doesn’t see conflict between that theory and the Biblical teaching that God created the world. Giertych, who took his office in May, 2006, considered his deputy expressed his private point of view in this matter.
Charles Darwin, a British naturalist, lived in the nineteenth century. He described his theory of evolution in the book which is usually called simply The Origin of Species.
