It's worse than that. We're the party of abolitionists!
While I firmly believe in evolution and see no contradictions in this belief in Christianity, it saddens me that schoolboards are not being allowed the slightest discretian in at least acknowleding that other viewpoints are out there.
Just one sentenc would put a lot of people at ease.
Evolution is about far more than just pure science, and anyone who tells you differently is full of it. Really, it's of very little consequence that one tortoise evolved from another after two populations had become isolated from one another. Useless OUTSIDE of what this tell us of who we are and where we came from.
And that is a much bigger subject and one that should not be taken lightly. It need not be discussed in a scientific classroom, but this is quite different than ionization energies.
Sure, evolution is useful in explaining viral and bacterial development, but when dealing with larger organisms, again, it's useless outside of what it tells us about the origins of "us" and life on this planet.
Heh heh heh. Go for it. It's your party, not mine.
