This organization receives federal funding yet disseminates information pertinent to a secularist view, in opposition to Judaic-Christian views, of the origins of the universe and the species. That seems to me to be in direct violation of the seperation of church and state doctrine secularists use against Christians. Is this yet another double standard?

This organization receives federal funding yet disseminates information pertinent to a secularist view what the overwhleming majority of scientists think

Fixed.

Are you joking?

Is this yet another double standard? Yes it is.... Yet another reson why gubmit schools suck. All schools should be privatized.

The federal education law, No Child Left Behind, requires states establish standards for student assessment. As a consequence, states across the country are working to develop K-12 science standards and model curricula that will ensure students meet these standards. This process has seemingly reinvigorated a host of organizations that oppose the inclusion of evolution in public school curricula or advocate for the inclusion of "alternative theories" ranging from young-Earth creationism to intelligent design.

All debate about the validity of evolution aside, could someone tell me exactly which article or amendment to the Constitution gives the federal government the power to regulate education, or the power to spend public money on scientific research grants?

I won't be holding my breath waiting for the answer.

I think this is probably a parody post.

From your post, it seems the only thing you would accept is direct federal funding in support of your particular brand of religion.

Go back and check the logic of your post; you should see what I mean.

Any subject that addresses the topic of the origin of man has profound **religious** consequences for all the children in the school. The origin of man brings into question the great metaphysical questions of:

1) Where did we come from?
2) Why are we here?
3) Where do we go when we die?

Is is any wonder that evolutionists, IDers, and creationists get touchy about how the origin of humankind is introduced to their children? How this topic is approached will have non-neutral religiously consequences regarding the above 3 questions.

There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that any government school can approach the topic of the origins of life without establishing the religious worldview of some, and crushing those of others. Government is forbidden by our First Amendment to do that! But,,in the Orwellian nether world of government schools human rights are suspended.

Solution: Begin the process of privatizing K-12 education. What is needed is complete separation of SCHOOL and state!

Evolutionists can then have your religiously **non-neutral** madrassess, and the IDers and creationists can have theirs.

The government will then not be threatening parents and children with imprisonment and foster care, if they refuse to attend the government indoctrination camps. Citizens will not be under threat of sheriff’s sale of home and businesses (or imprisonment) if they refuse to support a government school religious agenda hostile to their metaphysical religious worldview. ( Real bullets in those guns on the hip.)

And,,,remember please.. There is no such thing as a religiously neutral school. This means government schools! It is axiomatic. Evolution is merely one of hundreds of topics that can never be resolved in a religiously neutral manner. This is merely one reason among many why government schools are a First Amendment and human rights abomination.

Anyone who is part of the system is part of the problem.
