You are sounding like a pretty good liberal there. Anything else you would care to not let people hear? Perhaps only you and your kind know what is best for us? Give it up. If you and your buddies are really conservatives as you claim, you wouldn't care if people are taught different viewpoints. It is called critical thinking, something, once again, liberals do not do.

If all theories deserve to be taught, then how about holocaust revisionism in history class? Should we teach that uncritically alongside the mainstream view of WWII history? If not, then how can you call yourself a conservative? ;-)

Do you think school districts need to be told by courts not to teach holocaust revisionism, or do you trust them to make the right decision on their own?

(that's what the exchange that you were joining in on was about, btw)

Now there's a classic anti-intellectual red herring statement. Schools should teach how stupid holocaust revisionism right along with how Darwinian Fundamentalists admit they can't figure out how life originated and how some of them defer to space aliens. Look it up, they're doing it!
