What's worse? Someone going to a creationist website for information, or someone posting a science article and ignoring the content in favor of invoking a flame-war? Or even worse, arguing against conservative principles by preaching for a single theory or belief system to be taught to students. And let's not forget about some people's infatuation with trying to toss God out of every establishment in America (schools, courtrooms, the home, this forum).
In what sense is this against conservative principles? If we teach students that George Washington was the first President, and don't include the theory that Thomas Jefferson was the first President, is that un-conservative?
