Attn Darwin Central! Attn Darwin Central! If you're up, this should go to the pinglist.
Republicans deserve to get their butts kicked when they embrace garbage like ID as "science". They're just as nutty as Democrats who want to introduce condoms in the first grade.
PING to the ad-hoc crevo ping list. (PH has the official list.)
Wonder what excuses the ID shills will be conjuring up...
I see this is thread were people go to lose their souls...
Intelligent design: a hypothesis.
Evolution: a theory.
Scientifically, both belong in the classroom. BUT it should be made clear that the above is the truth. In addition, neither concept has been introduced as a law, according to the scientific method. That should also be made clear.
However, the theological implications of intelligent design is largely a humanities issue and we'd be robbing children of a proper education if we didn't at least discuss them in classes that touch on theology.

Fear our noodly agenda!
Kansas and Indiana will be next, when votors find out the effect this nonsense will have on their children's college futures.
Not a big loss in percentage terms. Dave Napierskie, the candidate for a two-year(unexpired) seat on the Board lost by 26 votes 2,516 to 2,542. The three DOVER CARES 2-year candidates got 2,670, 2,658 and 2,623 and three incumbents got 2,545, 2,544 and 2,466. For the 4-year seats Dover CARES 2,754, 2,716, 2,677 AND 2,625. The top incumbent was only 41 votes behind at 2,584. The others got 2,547, 2,526 and 2,469. The media (Our 'YORK DAILY RECTUM') gave that big headline at the top of its page. The teachers held a rally outside the school board meeting Monday to say they weren't ashamed of the union demand for a 19 percent pay raise this year. That issue was beginning to gain traction and I feel the incumbents are a viable opposition, especially when this Pennsylvania State Education Association bought school board (Nearly 5-thousand dollars to Dover CARES) starts up the spending and raising the taxes. Five seats up in two years.
If both sides said this wouldn't affect anything, and democrats won the seats in blue Pennsylvania, where is the big deal?
This says a great deal about the case, the election, and the direction of the debate.
I object to the notion that perjury is a conservative value.
Thank God!!!!!!!!!

Critical Thinking and Academic Freedom
We support the teaching of intelligent design and other diverse religious concepts related to the origins of life in order to enhance student understanding and critical thinking. Science class is not the proper curriculum for these concepts. This can only be done in a proper forum, such as an elective comparative religion course, so our students have the freedom to explore these concepts.
From the article:
About the loss, [James] Cashman said, “We put our effort into this and we tried to manage the school district as conservatively as we could. I have nothing to be ashamed about.”
Apparently lying to kids and trying to force someone's religion down their throats isn't shame-worthy to this loser... Pathetic.
An object lesson in what happens when Republicans abandon limited government conservatism and try to impose a sectarian agenda. Let's hope we can learn enough to 2005 to get this out of our system by 2006.
I guess whan the other shoe drops, and Judge Jones hands the School Board and Thomas More their asses (I mean donkeys, of course), the verdict isn't going to be appealed.
Any criticism or alternative theory is to be discreditied via a religious smear. Unable to explain your precious evolution on a molecular level, unable to prove your theory of macroevolution, unable to state evolution in a LAW, you resort to personal invective and castigation.
