Creationism Helps Mental Health in Students
Concerns were raised about the increase in mental illnesses in Australian students, and other countries (especially the formerly United States) should follow suit. Worldviews have consequences, and students are being indoctrinated with the Darwinian worldview.
As I have said many times, atheism essentially teaches negativity. That is, we are the products of the Big Bang, then minerals-to-microscopist evolution, there is no final ultimate justice, rewards, punishment. When you die, you are worm food. That is the evolutionary message of hope. No wonder people are messed up.

If studies like the one in Australia continue, it would be a good idea for them to examine the fact that evolutionism is not only a depressing worldview, but it is required to be taught. When someone says that Christians (especially biblical creationists) are denying "reality," we are denying bad science and presupposed atheistic naturalism.
One question often posed to me is “If the evidence against evolution is so overwhelming, why is it so-widely accepted?” A main reason is that evolution is a required part of the curriculum from first grade to graduate school. And the courts have “permanently barred the [school] board from requiring teachers to denigrate or disparage the scientific theory of evolution.”Discouragement and disappointment with public schools has recently increased, not only because of the trend to indoctrinate students into the evolutionary worldview, but also because leftist ideology in general now pervades the public school curriculum. The subject of origins is a good example of indoctrination for the following reason: religion at its core is a worldview that tells us where we came from, our purpose in the here and now, and where we are going (our future).
