Just goes to show you need only the ability to read, not to think...
I was taught the 'theory of evolution' back in my skool days... are they now saying it is no longer a theory, but an established fact?
Homeschool BUMP!
Separation of School and State BUMP!
This is what the government fears most.....
``They're going to be permitted to learn science unadulterated by religious dogma.''
And learn science adulterated by secular humanistic socialist dogma instead
Manely an ACLU member?....
imo
Yes, the founders absolutely endoresed Darwinism and wrote it into the Constitution. They were psychics you see, since Darwin wasn't born until Feb. 12, 1809.
This is insane, everything that isn't their way can't be used, read or taught. Approached open minded my foot....what about them being open minded for a change. I'm getting madder by the day of this garbage
It's been proven scientifically that Darwin's theory of evolution is not factually based. Unbelievable at the hubris displayed by this judge!
No.
I expect toilet paper restrictions on the number of "squares" to be "used" as a future Supreme Court case.
What a twit. That's like saying that just because you say a theory is not provably true, you are endorsing other theories and that is not allowed. If anything is unconstitutional here, it's the judge's order.
Not to mention that 2,000 parents wanted the truth and 6 parents sued to prevent the truth and the 6 win...Judges have way too much power and need to be reined in.
This really is shocking. There must be more to the decision than the quotations. Even if you accept the concept of separation of church and state, that doesn't mean you are required to endorse absolute hostility of state to anything that might ever have anything to do with church. How come tolerance is always a one-way street? If that sticker can't pass muster, something is really whacky.
Minority win again - 2000 parents vs. 6 parents
Cordially,
Hey I don't want to be the contrarion here, but are we getting stupid? If you teach evolution in school, you'll get scholars. If you teach creationism in school you get religious people. Hey, China is creating millions of scholars a years. Pretty soon they will be able to surpass us in technology. Maybe I'm an Idiot, but I'd rather have the USA stay number one than being a pious nation. To hell with God if it means we lose our number one status.
Am I alone in this thinking? that Country supercedes believe?
Yes. We all know you can get something out of nothing. You can get life from non-life. You can get reason from non-reason and consiousness from non-consciousness. Of course you can because something easily comes from nothing. We further know that the absence of transitional fossils is no reason to disbelieve the transitional theory, and that natural selection can have huge and istant bursts of complexity as we see in the details of the cell and DNA. And the fact that many of the icons of evolution that have long been published in our kids texbooks have been proven false is no reason to change the textbooks now. Let's not be rash. Like Rather says, the story is right if not the facts. We should never question the scientists you know. They are never wrong and have never been wrong throughout history. Oh, except for the scientists who question Darwinism. They're nothing but religious fanatics and should be fired.
Let's not let the facts get in the way of public education - indoctrination.
