There's reason for hope and change. They are not all young skulls full of mush. BTW, the under 30 demographic cohort voted for Obama over McCain by a 2:1 ratio.

To be sceptical of Darwinian evolution is to contravene the First Amendment according to the left. What church, i.e. establishment of religion, does that promote?

P.S. The pdf link is only 5 pages. P.P.S. I don't have problems with teaching evolution or highlighting what it doesn't explain.

Good teaching of science would mandate teaching both the strengths and weaknesses of any theory, not just natural selection, so I kind of dislike the focus these debates have on evolution.

Now if they focused on Global Warming...

IMO it was A) voting against status quo; B) voting for someone who isn't an old white guy.

That under 30 group is about as dumb as a bag of hammers regarding the issues. Yes there are exceptions.

Any SCIENTIFIC problems with ANY scientific concept should be fair game. Creation vs. evolution is a non-issue here.

The change to believe in is the loose change left in your pockets when this mess is over.

Whoops, Sorry. I thought this was about the “Stimulus” package.

"They are not all young skulls full of mush."

I disagree. I think the poll results are the consequence of their acceptance of what they're being taught. In particular, it's the maxim Anything is Possible. Once that mush is driven in their heads as a fundamental reference point, the chaos, confusion, cognitive dissonance, ect... that's otherwise known as mush, is all that's likely.
