Did the mainstream media – or Time magazine, specifically – ever try to find Barack Obama’s high school teachers?
Unlikely, but the magazine managed to dig up Gov. Scott Walker’s high school science teacher for her reaction to Walker’s “punt” of a question about evolution.
(Excerpt) Read more at theamericanmirror.com ...
What does evolution have to do with science? Something that has ever been observed, measured, tested with replicable results or providiing any degree of predictability whatsoever is science?
The mask never slipped off for TIME.
We know who and what these people are.
His High School Science teacher?
Really????
I graduated HS in 1970, which meant I was a teenager during the 60’s.
Yep. THOSE 60’s!
I guess I am forever disqualified from running for public office. LOL.
Barack Obama is a lying bastard who lied his rump off about being a product of the Selma march, lied his rump off about being a Christian, lied his rump off about Obamacare, lied his rump off about war (he’s started several of his own and tried to start even more)...
And Time-Lies-Warner-Turner-CNN is there to provide cover while attacking any conservative challengers to the office.
We may find out he was late to class a few times, too. Nothing but pure leftist desperation and it smells like cat pee.
Well at least they were able to find a teacher who remembers Walker. Barky not so much.
“Scientists” are certain about HOW life began but are unwilling to declare WHEN life begins.
It speaks volumes.
He shouldn’t have punted.
The answer is evolution is a theory.
The Ministry of Propaganda wants them to treat it as fact, which it is not.
The more important question for Walker is does he believe in the rule of law?
Particularly when applied to Fraudulently Documented Foreigners.
First I am leery of someone that has taught hundreds of individuals in the almost thirty years since Walker graduated and remembers him well to expound on his classwork. And how does the fact that he did well in a required science course have anything to do with his religious beliefs.
“Evolution” has everything to do with politics.
The lie they are pushing is that they are pro-science and Republicans are anti-science.
You have to understand their meme before you can push back appropriately.
Governor Jindal graduated from college with two degrees and a 4.0 (I think).
However, they are still seeking to tar and feather him with the anti-science/anti-evolution label.
See the ‘fight’ over the Louisiana Science Education Act.
Now the problem is, none of the politicians in Louisiana give a darn. Just about 1/2 (large number not 1/2) of the dem and reps ‘authored’ the bill. It was passed in 2007 or 2008. There were only 3 no votes against the bill.
However, For the last 4 years, the head of the democrats in the Senate has sought to repeal the law.
She can’t even carry the dems on the committee. They have only managed to get one committee vote every year for four years (well, perhaps two one year).
But they don’t care. That is not their purpose.
Their purpose is to tar Jindal as being the force behind the law. Now other than signing a bill that passed by veto proof margins should he reject it into law, there is scant evidence that Jindal was involved in the law in any fashion.
Yet they use this law to run the line that Gov. Jindal is pro-creationist and anti-evolution.
Actually they aren't. Not by a long shot. Modern science would have you believe that inert elements somehow magically combined by random chance into something as complex as a living cell. Actually, how life started is a bigger hurdle to overcome than evolution itself for the naturalist. The probabilities against it are so astronomical as to make it impossible.
And they still have not found anyone who went to school with Obama for comment.
Well said. Are you a writer?
Dig a little deeper into the education debate (where teachers add texts or challenging viewpoints to science classes).
The Left plays up that this is all about “creationism” but their big concern is “climate change deniers”.
The kids are being exposed to the errors of the doomsday predictions (we are far behind the warming trends that were projected just as the oceans were not dead at the turn of the century as predicted in the 1980s). Snow still falls in England (the doomsayers said kids today would never see snowfall).
I was, once upon a time, in a land north of here...
Ask anyone who believes in a god if they believe in God as Creator.
They don’t need to voice HOW, just speak on that basic point (because at the heart, that is a creationist worldview; not ‘young earth creationist’).
Did God cause the ‘Big Bang’? Was God surprised by the random occurring ‘Big Bang’? Did God(s) spring forth from the ‘Big Bang’? Or does God not exist? These are the four possibilities.
My high school Biology teacher said, on the first day of class, to leave God outside the classroom door, and not bring him into the classroom. I can’t remember anything else he said, except that one thing. To myself, I said that God was coming in with me ... :-) ... and he always did, so while I did learn the “information” given in the class, so that I got good grades, I was always critical of what was being presented there.
I had another teacher (in Physics) who was very much more in tune with God, and although he did not “preach the Gospel” ... he made it clear where he stood in regards to God and that the marvels of physics were the handiwork of God!
I am 77. I was exposed to evolution in elementary school, a long time ago.As an active Sunday school student also, I was able to resolve science theory and Bible Scripture. I grew up to become a scientist. I left this conflict back in elementary school. I think the debate, therefore, is childish.
Yeah. You know why?
Because he didn't go to no damn school.
