Spin, baby, spin!
This is the only way your side can keep a monopoly in public schools. If you could persuade the public, you would. If you had the proof, you'd bring it out. If you even had convincing evidence, you parade it down every main street in every American city and town.
But you don't have a persuasive argument, so you don't present it. You don't have the convincing evidence, so you just pretend you do. And even though only 12 percent think materialistic evolution is true, you want to impose your illogical, eclectic and unpersuasive worldview on a captive audience of children with the tax dollars of those who oppose such nonsense.
| BTW- another reason evolution is highly suspect: After 150 years of supposedly compiling evidence, monopolizing public schools and colleges, enjoying the support of liberals and the liberal media, and using the ACLU to suppress their opposition, and spending untold billions on research, we are still unpersuaded. And it's not because 88% of America is stupid. It's because evolutionists couldn't make a persuasive case if they had the entire GNP to spend doing it. |
Actually, there are some folks who won't even listen to the "persuasive case" that scientists have built up for the past 150 years. Any wouldn't believe a word of it if they did.
You know, I think there may be some of those folks right here on FR, maybe even on this very thread.
If we'd had to wait for the majority in the South to desegregate public schools, they'd still be segregated.
It actually has more to do with not teaching evolution at all in public schools in some states until the 1960's. And it has to do with the poor quality of instruction.
None of the schools I went to even taught evolution. That's why most people don't know what it is.
And about 40% of the population think that Bush lied about WMD but Bill Clinton didn't. Popular opinion is meaningless when people can be led around so easily by charismatic people speaking from podiums and televisions.
I don't think they like to be reminded that they constantly ally themselves with the ACLU to censor people (not to mention Morris Dees and Barry Lynn). Cultural Marxists are not conservatives.
