I can live with the fact that my grandchildren will rule over the masses because of the education I give them.

They may, only because the public schools have dumbed down so badly, not because home schools are so great.

Another prediction: Your grandchildren will accept evolution as the fact it is.

I've seen the church I grew up in go from accepting science, teaching explicitly that science and Genesis do not conflict if you interpret it correctly, to now being a backward anti-science congregation. That will reverse, and trends often do, when it becomes obvious that teaching anti-science does a church more harm than good.

The ID wave has come, and gone. The "scientists" that testified in favor of ID at Dover were forced to admit that evolution occurs. The term "Intelligent Evolution" is now being circulated. When the Discovery Institute guys made the media rounds on Fox News last week, it was an obvious last ditch effort to get donations from the true believers. It's their last stand.

Just as it is with leftist ideology, that becomes more shrill as it goes down like the Wicked Witch of the West splashed with water, the ID promoters are giving it one last desperate shot.

But they've already failed miserably.

I doubt that they will be Evos. You may not know it yet, but parents know nothing, but Opas know EVERYTHING.

I happen to have a fairly strong education in science, as a whole, not deep into much, but I have a very broad understanding of many sciences.

I don't get all uptight by the attacks from evos. I believe the BIble is GOd's WOrd and is absolutely the truth. I also believe that no matter how vehemently lies attack the truth, the truth will always have the final victory.

For example, no matter that the entire human race thought the world was flat, it is still spherical.

No matter how much the Aristotle theory that everything consisted of four elements was accepted, we now see there are many more.

I am not seating in the least over the truth and what will be the outcome. I am only concerned that my descendants will ignore the truth which will make the further descendants unaware of the truth at all. SO long as I am alive, I can be sure they will at least know of the truth. And if I am healthy, I expect to be around to the fifth generation.
