Minds are finite tools for exploring infinity, and most proponents and vocal advocates of such tyranny in the classroom must rely on data provided by other, likewise limited, minds. Can any one, alone, apply the "scientific method" to every aspect of the dogma they defend?
If not of such serious consequence to the liberty of future generations, one could find it laughable, as the Creator well must!
In every "science" classroom, could there be a gigantic and invisible elephant, just waiting to be discovered by some young mind, not yet imprisoned by his/her captors?
And, what do we do with the underlying theme and foundation of our liberty, as expressed in the Declaration of our Independence, summed up in Jefferson's capsulization?
"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them."
Ideas have consequences!
In the Year 2005--just one little sliver of time in the existence of the universe--one observes the "foolishness" and arrogance of human beings who, limited by the human brain's capacity for assimilating and incorporating adequate data for rational evaluation and understanding of profound questions about the origins of their universe, deem themselves "keepers" of the gate for the minds of rising generations.
You seem to be saying that humans are arrogant and foolish to assume that they know anything at all about the origins of our cosmos worthy of being taught to their children. If I'm interpreting you correctly, this seems silly. Would you suggest that we don't teach our children what we currently think will best prepare them to understand the world they inhabit (understanding always that what we teach them may be subject to revision as we learn more)? I hope not.
