"I *meant* that -- in trying to lecture me on being "UnChristian" -- you have about as much knowledge of my "transgressions" against Orthodox Presbyterianism, as I have knowledge regarding your personal life."

What ever you say Slick Willie!

"Sorry. I'm unwilling to debate Policy, without addressing the underlying Philosophy thereof."

The policy you want (abolition of government schools) isn't going to happen any time soon. It's hard enough getting vouchers passed. The reality is that government schools are going to be here for a while, like it or not (I don't like it). If that is true, then science education is going to be a part of that education. Removing all things in science that may offend someone's religious convictions is completely impractical. YEC goes against not just the mainstream of biology, but of geology, and cosmology, astronomy, and particle physics. We'll wind up with an even more scientifically illiterate population than we already have, and that's saying a lot.

Seeing that you have no SCIENTIFIC arguments against these claims, your attempts to destroy scientific education in this country is all the more appalling.
