That is complete nonsense. The way bonobos behave is very well known--you don't need obscure scientific references from me, you need 5 minutes on the internet, in the library, or you need a trip to the zoo. And all our near relatives are similar in kind, if not in degree, as has been volumineously reported. You remind me of the three monkeys with the hands over their eyes, ears, and face.
I'm open to suggestions, of course, but I think that as long as the state controls the education system, it will remain inherently mediocre.
IMO, better to scrap it and harness the power of free markets and American innovation to develop a better way of educating our children.
Do you support waivers then?
Are they the same as vouchers? If so, then yes, I think they'd make a good start.
Haha, yes, I meant vouchers. Too many fantasy sports for me.

Oooooo! Zotttt!!
Guess Mr. Mod found some resonant IP's in our visitor's background.
And you, donh, remind of a monkey. I've seen how they act in zoos!
Scratch and sniff.
Humans have the opportunity for reason and free will, which animals do not.
There have been more than a handful of this type of troll lately.
It's satisfying to know that even after they are banned, they can still read here!
Uh oh. Now donh is getting more confused. He thinks post 290 was to me. He has the right to be ignorant but he's abusing that right! Fortunately there's a vaccine for ignorance - too bad he's more interested in misdirection than what experts have to say on the matter.
Don't forget to read the tagline.
I bet he's sorry he wrote that. I can't stop laughing. It was odious when he wrote it, but a TAGLINE!
I can't stop laughing.
No more need be said.
It's amazing how wanting to believe lies will make a person go insane.
It's easy enough to make a monkey out of donh. But why should I take all the credit when he out does himself everyday?
"You can't gainsay an argument by bleating like stuck pig over and over."
Wow! Talk about transference.
I have a new tagline too. (At least for this thread.)
After reading some of the posts, I realized that although the words are English, and grammar rules are more or less followed, that's it. It's amazing what the human mind can do.
He'd make for great comic relief if the subject wasn't so serious. Ordinary people live and learn. He just lives because he already knows everything.
Catch you tomorrow.
Right.
Lots of behaviors may have an "instinctive" or "genetic" component, from alcoholism to obesity or what-have-you. I thought the idea of civilization was to harness and channel "animal instincts."
Here's something I've noticed. Most conservatives rarely say "religious," they say "Christian." It's a little thing, sort of a shibboleth for liberals.
Of course, I think it's funny that this guy thought "pro-family" was a bad thing.

His life continued this way careless, illogical, one big, happy, “share”. Until the year 2032. In 2032 orangutans took over the planet, and it was no movie.
Now the year was 2046, the blue sky, green, and A equaled B. UnitDavid255’s existence had changed immensely - Homosexuality had become the norm among the human race, partially justified because of finding it in zoos and in nature. However natural selection had its way and the human race declined. And orangutans ruled the roost. Now humans existed only in zoos and in small bands in the wild. But the orangutans were more and more turning towards decadent behavior including homosexuality, and were justifying it in unusual and illogical ways. They had since 2039 kept some humans in zoos. Lo and behold in 2045 gay (but unhappy) orangutan zoo bosses discovered that homosexuality in humans occurs. Many gay and lesbian orangutans took guided tours of the zoo in Follyland and were so thankful to be reassured that homosexuality is a natural phenomenon that happens throughout the human world. The male humans that “went nuts for each other” were found to be arousing but they did stink. The Sodomite Star newspaper reports Dr Freakenhuis said: "When homosexuality in humans was first discussed, it was thought not to occur, but perverted humans simply respond to their own nature. They do not have the complications of orangutans. Homosexual humans are not regarded with suspicion by their own species. There is absolutely no rejection of homosexual companions, like you often find with orangutans."
What soothed homosexual orangutans consciences even more was the discovery that humans in the wild also indulged in homosexual acts. (I should say here that it is my understanding UnitDavid255 was not one of the humans observed behaving this way. That was just a rumor started on the FreeOrangutans bulletin board run by a stunning, blond, orangutan named WarOrango.) Researchers in Sumbuttra spotted acts of ruthless sodomy between two pairs of male humans, near the town of Hairybuttra. It is was the first time sodomy has been seen in humans in the wild. Dr. Elizadunce Dog, a researcher from the Bronx Zoo-based Humanlife Conservation Society, has published her research in the American Journal of Humantology. She said: "It's disheartening that we're only now beginning to learn of the full range of behavior among these “highly intelligent” humans, yet they are vanishing faster than any time in history."
So being very intelligent creatures homosexual orangutans were taken in by the logic, if humans commit sodomy why cannot we? And why should we suffer persecution from homophobic orangutans? What happened next was legend. Some orangutan started posting pro homosexual stupidity on the FreeOrangutan board. And he didn’t stop, even though the other orangutans pointed out the glaring flaws in his posts. They were so dumb - we orangutans should be able to engage in sodomy just because HUMANS do??? And besides, any orangutan with a brain knows the function of a rectum. The posts got so bad WarOrango created a special area called to The Closet. But it didn’t have a very good door, the smell was getting out. Warango hired an orangutan to put a Vent Fan on The Closet routed directly to the nose of the offender. That did it. He finally went limp. All the those smells rendered him unable to ever defend stinky sodomy again. The End.
