... playground insults and saturday morning cartoons. Supposedly, it is too difficult to tell from whence the garbage is originating. I find the concept stunning, but we have to deal with it.

This link to Texas Citizens for Science contains a lot of info on the present controversy in Texas:

Gentlemen: I'm bailing out for the evening. I trust there will still be a thread to visit when I log on in the morning.

To: Aric2000
Evolution has been, continues to be, and will continue to be science.Sorry, chanting "evolution is science", "evolution is science", "evolution is science", may work with the masses, but the chant doesn't make evolution science.
The fact remains, evolution is just another religion, believed by withfull thinking, and/or faith.
To: PatrickHenry
Blessings Patrick. I too hope this thread will last until the results in Texas come in.

One good thing to note is that all the proposed AP and Honors Biology textbooks are well-rated by Texas Citizens for Science. This is good for our future scientists, anyway.
Teaching real science to the bright kids and dumbed-down watered-down science to the less able kids widens the gap between the "haves" and the "have nots", unfortunately.

With kids allowed to be free thinkers, maybe we can overcome the drought caused by evolution and produce some more Einsteins.

Thanks...maybe I'm tired or something, but not sure I understand your comment...
"Say what you will but I can almost bet that none of the folks here will even try to talk to him because they know they will not win." Who are you refering to?

I could, given some time, cite biologists who argue that viruses are living.Look, you are the one that brought up my use of living for a cell. Dispute it or withdraw your concern. We all know that at least a living cell is considered living as opposed to a jail cell which is not living.
