a would say a majority of us don't get it either but the squeaky wheel makes the most noise and gets the most notice. I and many of my conservative compatriots here in the states have no compunction about following the proven tenants of science. religion is for church and should remain there.

And science is for studying facts and making theories, and should not be taught in a way that makes it an assult on religious beliefs. For most, it is not a desire to get intelligent design in the classroom (although there are those who do), it is the absolute stance that science explains it all and you must accept that it does and disavow your religous beliefs that outrages people.

To: Always Right
Being your "Always Right" please ignore the following FACTS:


Evolution is a vital, well-supported, unifying principle of the biological sciences, and the scientific evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of the idea that all living things share a common ancestry. Although there are legitimate debates about the patterns and processes of evolution, there is no serious scientific doubt that evolution occurred or that natural selection is a major mechanism in its occurrence. It is scientifically inappropriate and pedagogically irresponsible for creationist pseudoscience, including but not limited to "intelligent design," to be introduced into the science curricula of our nation's public schools.
