have been horrified at the prospect of a federal judge telling folks in Dover what they should or should not teach their 14-year-olds.

I have no problem with what they teach their 14 year olds. I have a problem with what they want to teach my 14 year old.

If they want to make their kids stupid, so be it. After all, when they grow up, my kids will need someone to wash their toilets.

"I have no problem with what they teach their 14 year olds. I have a problem with what they want to teach my 14 year old."

Same way I feel about Evolution.

Questions:

Is a person of character who washes toilets for a living better than a person lacking character smugly doing big deals with a cell phone glued to their ear?

Or:

A man is a Janitor for eight hours a day and comes home to his apartment to be with his children every evening; whereas another man spends seventy hours a week working so he can own a mansion and afford the Janitor.

On the flip side, you could let the good people of Dover start teaching about pink invisible unicorn creators in class and let the "science" curriculum be mocked openly.
