The original idea behind my post was that by applying the scientific method, kids would readily tell the difference between science and superstition. Then after I thought about it a bit more, I realized the inherent problems with teaching non-science in science class. First it would be nonsense in biology, then astronomy, then on and on. Just not a good precedent. And I remembered that most teachers in High School just teach from the book anyway. So what was I suggesting, a chapter on superstitions?
