My daughter came home frightened to death after her "physics" class was shown the Al Gore movie. I would love for FReepers who have good source material to help us refute her teacher.
The teacher is a rabid democrat and obviously shoved this down the kids' throats. The class are kids, ranging in ages of 16 to 18 (juniors and seniors).
Any links to printable material would be greatly appreciated.

Your daughter is between 16 and 18 years old and this scared her?
You don't need us to research anything for you. You need to sit down with her and see what the problem is unless she is just a ninny.

Have her record her teacher's rants using her phone or ipod; then send them to Fox News or another reliable conservative outlet.
Don't try refuting the teacher. Rapid leftists do not listen to logic and debate is impossible. Make your goal the embarrassment of the looney leftist. Then he will crawl back into his hole. Don't go to the administration or principal either. Go to the media.

She has a right to be scared. It's insane when this junk science CRAP is being shoved down the throats of our kids. THAT is scary - and OUTRAGEOUS!

I would just wait until she's gotten her last report card at that school and complain to the school board. Junk science and partisan propaganda should not be in the schools.
To: Nachum
This could be interesting. Encourage your daughter to do research regarding the convenient lie of global warming and present a paper.....Warning, liberals only want to see their truth even if presented with good data and facts....

This seems like a terrific teaching opportunity. Your daughter will be exposed to a lot of wrong-headed information in her lifetime. Use this moment to teach her how to think critically for herself, research information and discover opposing viewpoints.
Frankly that's not a bad idea even when its something you agree.
There is never any reason to be afraid of ideas themselves. There is good reason to be afraid of ideas that are never challenged.

Does the teacher need to be mocked in a parody song?

Start with www.JunkScience.com - they have an excellent section on global warming. One article in particular, while long and detailed, provides a tremendous amount of information as well as a good summary at the end.

Too late now...she already saw the movie. Now she will NEVER get it out of her head!
Really.......calm down. She's a big girl and have her do some research ON HER OWN! Don't do it for her!

When you complain, the standard answer is "Why, you're the only one... Nobody else has a problem with it." Of course, even if 90 per cent of the parents complain, that's their story. Divide and conquer. Be sure to google "Delphi Technique" on how the modern "education" establishment works their agenda.

I could understand if your daughter came home tired after watching that, but scared? She needs to come on here and get flamed every once in a while, that will toughen her up.

You need to show her the ManBearPig episode of South Park.
