When teaching hard sciences, should we include, witchcraft and magic?

In medical school, are anti-biotics "theories"? Or, should we also teach bloodletting? Gooooood Looorrrdd!

The "anti-evolution" imbeciles (that's like being anti gravity-- or anti-photosynthesis) honestly, are so stupid, they think dinosaurs are faked and evolution science is a fraud -- all a conspiracy by the powerful "natural history museum lobby". (Daily Kos-but there are hundreds of sources). Really? What?
It's like a race to be the dumbest. You should have heard the crazy crap the Republican presidential candidates have said in the last 48 hours, about science, religion, women's health. It is SCARY! They want WANT to be stupid.
It's all a "theory"? Whaaaattt? This is established science. There are no doubts. Placing leeches on people and bleeding them is no longer an accepted medical procedure. My God. There are layers of billions of years of sediment, back to a time when all there were, were little two cell creatures. I have touched them.
There's a new Public Policy Polling poll out identifying Scott Walker as the top Republican pick among their presidential maybe-candidates. He wants to be stupid. He thinks being stupid is "real". So do the rest of the clowns. But some of the other poll results among self-identified Republicans are doozies.
For example:
• 49 percent of Republicans say they do not believe in evolution. They think it is a fraud. The world is 8000 years old. This is crazy. Only 37 percent say they do. Maybe they don't believe in Gravity? Photosynthesis?

these dinosaurs, their skeletons, the carbon dating, the petroleum science, the ice ages, the layers of billions of years are all a conspiracy by the powerful natural history museum lobby.
**66 percent of Republicans say they do not believe in global warming.
Mind you, even the most science-denying Republicans in Congress have said they "believe" in global warming, they just don't think we should do anything about it. Their base has not yet reached this enlightened state.
Many suggest it's a fraud, to scam money.
• 57 percent of Republicans would support establishing Christianity as our "national religion." Really the most socially dangerous, because it shows they have no idea what form of government we have, on top of the obvious fact that many people have no use at all for the dubious dogma of fundamental Christianity. It's a nut-bag invasion.
