You are a bully and are lobbying for government armed police, courts, and social workers to FORCE your educational philosophy on other people's children.

Tell MALDEF. I think the kids have to learn English, too, even if the parents are activists for La Raza.

And no, I don't think I'm forcing an educational philosophy (whatever that means). I'm stating that all kids need to be taught science. Part of science is the fact that biologists, overwhelmingly, support ToE. The kids need to learn the theory and the supporting evidence.

Do you really think Christian Scientist students should be excused from science, health, hygene, sex-ed, etc classes, because their parents claim (IMO pretend, in order to attract attention) not to accept germ theory? You really want waiters who scoff at the need to wash after peeing? (Let's hope the restaurant owner believes in germ theory!)

To Virigina-American,

I happen to own a health clinic. The OSHA rules and regulations are very extensive and strict. Not one of my employees has known these regulations when I hired them and I only hire people who have had some college, at a minimum. I will not hire someone with only a high school diploma.

These people, with some college education, need to LITERALLY be taught how to wash their hands. Yes! I am not kidding or exaggerating. They need to be taught how to properly call 911, what is and how to use an eyewash station ( so much for their H.S. chemistry class!), or even a fire extinguisher. I once made the mistake of hiring a high school grad from the hills of Kentucky. She did NOT know how to make a long distance phone call or ride the public bus of a city she had lived in for 4 years!

I PROMISE you that they have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA OF CONTAMINATED OR STERILE!

So...if you are holding your breath waiting for a government school to teach hand washing....well....you will asphyxiate!

I am certain that every restaurant owner in our state has had similar experiences as mine in my health clinic,,,,and,,,they are hiring employees with high school educations or less.
