Evolution could not explain why animals
might be adapted to their habitat in
a primary project.

"It might upset the local christian community."
Don't mention 'Evolution'

This attitude in Primary Schools is
probably rather more widespread
than one might expect.

It's that 'observation' criterion.
Not only that but repeated 'observation"
and
even then
there's an allowance for new information.

Whereas religion only requires
'belief'.
or is it
just reading a book.
