Judge John E. Jones III struck down a policy passed by the Dover Area School Board that brought into question Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. He even went as far as to call those board members who supported the policy liars.

And, of course, he was being completely objective. /sarcasm

Good for him. IM doesn't belong in the classroom. This has already been posted by the way. The other post has already evolved far beyond this one so it will flourish while this one will languish.

There's a surprisingly large number of people out there who actually believe they can lie their way into heaven. The judge did the right thing by keeping them out of science class.

Ah, you snakehandlers just don't comprehend that by pushing the Christian creationist story, you are violating the establishment clause of the Constitution. Besides, do you really think that you can actually put up the concept of "a creator" in a hard science course?
Since you folks seem to cite the "will of the people" so much (even though we are a REPUBLIC, not a Democracy), it should be known that the strongest supporters of creationism in survey after survey are the poor and the uneducated, especially disadvantaged minorities. Yet another argument for the privitization of education (under which you folks can teach whatever mythology you want to push in science class).
KEEP REASON AND LOGIC IN THE SCIENCES!

He even went as far as to call those board members who supported the policy liars. They lied during the trial. They reminded me of Muslims who believe it's not only okay, but admirable to lie to the infidel. Do you believe it's acceptable to "lie for the Lord"?

People did not descend from baboons. Baboons and humans have a common ancestor, however.

I believe that devolution should be taught in the schools. How else to explain Howard Dean and NAncy Pelosi?

Not sure of the name of the common primate ancestor, but apparently humans, baboons, and other primates are better adaptations to their respective environments than it was to its.

Nice pic but looks like an ape (or something similar) to me. Sure doesn't look human, at least not on my side of the family. Nice try, though.

Why wouldn't you expect it to have some resemblance? I really think you guys make these things up as you go along. And all these stories are predicated with "may".
