The kids at school tell his daughter she "came from monkeys," he said.
While this may be an oversimplification, isn't this pretty much what evolution claims?
No
Then where did she come from?
This past December, John E. Jones, III, chairman of the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) and the already designated NABCA President-Elect for 2001-2002, resigned from the NABCA position, citing other responsibilities that would not allow time for him to properly perform his duties as NABCA President. Indeed, just before press time, StateWays learned that Jones was officially nominated on February 28 by President George W. Bush for a seat as a Federal judge on the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania.

(It does appear the very early primates were called monkeys, however, they are not the modern monkeys we see today)
So, the evolutionist answer is 'yes' rather than 'no'. That being the case, why should taht girl's parents be upset?
Evolutionists can't have it both ways.
Not the same monkeys. Sorry, but in reference to the original question, the answer is still no.
Read the link.
I'm going to have to eat some crow here. that picture, along, with that bio, says we are in a heap of trouble. I bet he wishes this was a jury trial.
I did. Aside from the article in the link containing a lot of speculation, the general answer is 'yes'.
NEW Entropy and the second law of thermodynamics. Please note the Evolution link.
Doubt it. The senators from PA are Specter and Santorum; he would have been suggested by them. Neither is hard core religious right. He was confirmed unanimously by the Senate. His role as District Court judge is to assemble a factual record, and render a verdict based on the law. The case law here is clear, and he's given the plaintiffs a lot of latitude in introducing evidence. I was quite surprised he admitted testimony about Philip Johnson's statements on ID being an excuse to bring God into the classroom.
He'll issue a narrow, safe verdict based on precedent, finding for the plaintiffs, and the case will go to appeal, maybe, if Thomas More doesn't decide to cut their losses.
He's no John Roberts. His record makes him sound like a political hack. And he's sitting there, thinking: "I don't know what's going on here, but on one side we have the ACLU ..."
If a kid's taunted about being short, and really is short, you think that's OK?
I recall that Santorum slipped something strange into the "No student left behind" bill. Something about creationism. I may be remembering it all wrong.
~ Patrick Henry If one wants to use that argument then we can also say, "The case is about the Constitution -- specifically whether Darwinianism is so infused with supernaturalism (metaphysics) that the school board allowing it to be taught in sciences classes violates the First Amendment."
From the horse's mouth, himself:
"Origin of man now proved. -- Metaphysics must flourish. - He who understands baboon would do more toward Metaphysics than Locke." --- [Charles] Darwin, Notebook M, August 16, 1838
As proudly quoted front and center by Michael T Ghiselin in his book Metaphysics and the Origin of Species
Did you intend to bad-mouth Darwin? (See #77)
Interesting. How many witnesses does it take to make something a fact?
Yes, he did.
