    most teachers today are complete idiots..stupid dolts

    I assume that you mean most "public" school teachers. That certainly has been my experience with a few exceptions. Even thirty years ago when I was in college, I noticed that the education majors had the lowest SAT scores and were mostly "C" and "D" students when they took classes outside of the School of Education. Inside the School of Education, however, they all thought they were brilliant because they got "A's" and "B's" in the core education courses (math, history, English, etc.), which were dumbed-down versions of the courses that the rest of us had to take outside of the school of education.

    Many of the teachers in the private schools, however, are a different breed because private schools are not required by the state bureaucrats to hire state certified teachers. As a result, many of the teachers started teaching as a second career after working for years as engineers, doctors, lawyers, scientists, and business owners.

    My 5 year old nephew was sitting in church with his arms folded in front of himself and he let out a big sigh. My sister noticed he was intently staring at the crucifix above the altar and she asked him what was wrong- and he said out loud for all the church to hear:

    “Jesus Christ! When is he going to come down from there?”
