What a crock!
Isn't the Theory of Evolution, by definition, not a fact ?
wtf?
you would think. My problem with this is the judge cites "seperation of church and state" as his reason to have it removed. This is just another attempt by liberal judges to have any mention of God taken out of our schools.
I tell you all right now, I am only 24, but my kids (when I have them) will not be attending public schools--that is unless I lead a fight to take back our schools!
Read this earlier today at massnews.com Incredible! The ACLJ needs to start taking the ACLU to court for hate crimes violations. They continually "discriminate on the basis of race, gender, sexual orientation, or religion" Isn't that what a supposed "hate crime" is?
So the false religion of atheism gets the stamp of approval form the little tin god, but suggesting that his tenet might not be fact, that's impermissible?
That high pitched whirring sound you hear is the Founding Fathers spinning in their graves like Dremmel tools.

All good posts. I totally agree.
NO WONDER the dimocraps in congress are fighitng W's judge nominations...
Having the audacity to question evolution dogma is a religion now?
Why is it a religious statement to note that the Theory of Evolution is a theory? Plenty of irrelegious scientists know that.
Normally, I'd expect the federal circuit court to smack down the district court judge for jumping at shadows. But with the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals populated by ultra-libs like Rosmeray Barkett, I'm not optimistic.
He was appointed by Clintoon.
Crazy. In the first place, those stickers should have never been placed in the books - but now that they're there, why are we wasting money removing them? This whole thing is insane. I feel I need to rant for a moment about the opposition - atheism is just as much a religion as christianity or judaism, wh don't we start seeing judges recognize that? To actively -not- beleive in a deity takes just as much faith as actively beleiving - so let's see some equity in religious/non-religious 'protections' (a constitutional specter I've never seen, only a clause forbidding the establishment of or restriction of specific religions). Come on now! Lets waste tax dollars on something more important that this garbage. I reiterate - the stickers were pointless and a money-pit initially, and the removal thereof is likewise pointless and a money-pit. I can't beleive the insanity this kind of stuff causes.
Now they have "hate crime by association"! If you hold some belief in common with religious people, it is proven that you do so for religious reasons. I wonder if this guy is smart enought to get into his box of Cheerios. </forehead slap>
Biogrpahical information on this judge
Sounds as though he chose to get involved in politics, studied political science, moved on to law school, was hired to be the first black Legal Aid Lawyer, then first black DA, and his career has been nothing but a series of appointments from Dim politicians.
And those dim jerks in the Senate think Bush's appointees are "extremists"? This sticker says nothing about religion. It speaks only to the theory of evolution. What's next? The theory of relativity has to be considered something other than what it in fact is?
Good move! We kept our kids out of public school and they both graduated at the top of their classes. Although they once or twice wanted to try attending public school, they are now grateful that they didn't. The honors opportunities, scholarships, and personal attention from the college profs would likely not occur had we allowed them to attend a public school that boasts if they make the 51st percentile.
They lost the In-God-We-Trust case against a county treasurer and the judge ordered them to pay attorneys' fees to ACLJ.
