Georgia federal judge: Textbook stickers stating evolution is a theory not fact is unconstitutional.
Center For Reclaiming America ^

Posted on 02/17/2005 5:30:03 PM PST by Happy2BMe

News Alert:
On January 13, a federal judge in Georgia ruled that stickers placed in textbooks of an Atlanta area school district saying “Evolution is a theory, not a fact” are unconstitutional! ( View sticker.) According to this judge, such criticisms of evolution are an endorsement of religion. The judge’s action is the latest example of the nationwide effort to ban any critical analysis of the theory of evolution and insist that evolution be taught as the only option!

The Action:
The Center for Reclaiming America has launched a national petition to rally 100,000 citizens immediately to oppose this federal court edict and insist that evolution be taught as a theory, not fact, in our schools. The “Our Kids Deserve The Truth” petition has three goals:

  1. INSIST that evolution be taught as a theory, not a fact.
  2. DEFEND school administrators, teachers, parents and students that stand up for truthful teaching about evolution.
  3. SUPPORT legislative and school board efforts to ensure that our kids are taught the truth about evolution and promote

    Objective Origins in school curriculum.

We are also launching a national awareness campaign targeting millions with the “Our Kids Deserve the Truth” message. Also, through this grassroots effort, we want to empower citizens with the resources they need to effectively challenge school boards—leading them to adopt the Objective Origins curriculum.

"8. Belief that rocks can fall from the sky promotes hedonism and amoral, animalistic behavior.
And how! Homosexuality and sex change operations have been rampant ever since they started teaching Craterism in schools. Coincidence?"

Young beautiful blonde teachers are forcing themselves on young boys because of Craterism. Protect yourself with an aluminum hat, only $19.95. That is if you want to be protected.

No, meaning as soon as the bullet leaves the barrel, gravity acts on it and an arc begins to form.

Many people believe a projectile's trajectory will follow the curvature of the barrel.

Actually, teaching any religion in school is not unconstitutional. Only teaching the single government religion is unconstitutional.

However, teaching an untruth like the Earth is only 6000 years old or there is an "intelligent designer" who we want to call God but can't created each separate organism is unChristian.

Evolution is a fact. Of course you really know that, already.

Materialistic Craterism is leading our women astray, by robbing them of all hope of the future, of any reason to plan for the next generation. Craterists are destroying the most basic foundation of our society with your Rocks-from-the-Sky blasphemy! And all this, all these lies, merely to satisfy Their animalistic lust. Have they no shame?

We know how they whisper to our daughters: "Why preserve your chastity, young maiden, when at any moment a rock may fall upon us from the sky."

Many people have never zeroed a rifle. Your sarcasm in the previous post is not evidence of that but it does make me wonder.

Hey, lets start our own "research institute" with a website, graduate school and a staff of "credentialed" Ph.Ds.

Then we can hit the lecture circuit and sell DVDs and comic books.

Cha-ching!

Statism is a fact. Why don't you provide us the Constitutional cites giving the federal government power in public school districts? And I don't want to hear any crap about this morons decision that any opposition to evolution equals an establishment of religion.

You posed a question that you didn't know the correct answer to. The correct answer is that any bullet fired from a barrel forms an arc, a curve. The 40% who siad the bullet would curve were correct. The 60% which presumably includes you who said it wouldn't were incorrect, Pi not withstanding.
