To put things in perspective, the argument is not whether General Evolution or Intelligent Design offers a better explanation for the way things are. The argument is whether ANY THEORY OTHER THAN DARWINISM will be permitted to make even a token appearance in our public schools.

In other words, Darwinists want a permanent monopoly, and no dissention permitted. They wouldn't even sit still for an agreement that the science teacher, almost certainly a Darwinist himself, could mention to the kids if he really felt like it that there was a stupid book in the library by some kook, if they really wanted to take the trouble to go look at it and risk getting a D in the course.

If Darwin's theory is so blindingly and permanently obvious, why not allow some discussion about it?

'Sience...is but a candle in a cavernous
foyer of a castle with infinite rooms.

The sum total of all that mans
science "understands" is but a
thimblefull of that which even
man can comprehend that we do
not know about the world around us.

These "scientists are as arrogant and
ignorant as the priests and Dojes
who mocked and pesecuted Copernicus.

If you can *name* another scientific theory of the diversity of life, feel free to provide a curriculum for it.

Until then, stop whining. "ID" does not even rise to the level of a scientific hypothesis, much less a scientific theory. It's merely a propaganda campaign.

In other words, Darwinists want a permanent monopoly, and no dissention permitted.

Paranoid much? Feel free to dissent all you like. And we'll feel free to point out how your dissent is ignorant and fallacious.

They wouldn't even sit still for an agreement that the science teacher, almost certainly a Darwinist himself, could mention to the kids if he really felt like it that there was a stupid book in the library by some kook, if they really wanted to take the trouble to go look at it and risk getting a D in the course.

...because the "mention" was scripted to be deeply dishonest, the "stupid book" grossly misrepresented the facts on nearly every page, and the people pushing the "mention" were revealed time and time again to be pushing not science, but their religion.

So stop lying about the actual events, please. You're sounding like yet another grossly dishonest anti-evolutionist, and we have *more* than enough of those already.

If Darwin's theory is so blindingly and permanently obvious, why not allow some discussion about it?

Go ahead and discuss it all you like. Just stop lying about it, and stop trying to dishonestly push religion into schools in a Trojan Horse with "science" scribbled on the side, when it isn't.

Are we clear now?

All we ask is that the AECreationists and "IDers" STOP LYING, stop lying about their beliefs being actual science, and stop trying to get their lies taught to school students. I would think that wouldn't be too much to ask, but apparently it is, because it sure makes them screech like little girls.
