It's a clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

When they actually start invoking the Book of Genesis to back up their theory, then you'd have at least the beginnings of a case to make. Until then, it's just theory that you disagree with. I think the people are capable of deciding that in their own school districts, and especially in a situation, there will be plenty of debate and plenty of opportunity to persuade the voters. That's how things are supposed to work in a free republic. It's sad that so many people around here don't get that.

They get it, they are all smart folks, they simply choose statism because it advances their cause. And at the same time whine about how folks who believe God created all, like me, are giving conservatism a bad name.

It's pathetic.
