This must be some definition of 'conservative' I'm not familiar with.
Which of you guys has the ping list? This is a must-read column!
Seems ironic to have a really really really stupid person promoting intelligent design.
You work with what you have.
This simply substantiates many of my previous rants about how creationists/IDer's tend to lie, I mean misspeak, about creationsism, ID and science in general. Based on testimony and evidence in this trial, ID is an attempt to inject religion into science classes and the attempts to cover it up are miserable failures.

How sad! Poor guy. Of course, he should never have been elected to the school board, but that's how school board elections go. We rarely know much about the candidates.
Perhaps this will change in Dover at the upcoming election. Perhaps the community will do better.
Perhaps this gentleman will learn his own limitations, as well.
Sick, really sick.
And intelligent people are forced to deal with a clown like this.
Even Vill Clinton couldn't have wiggled his way out of this one.
Maybe Rand was right and we should all go on strike.
I think the only one who's going to come out of this looking better than when it all started may be Mike Argento. Wouldn't surprise me if he parlayed this exposure into a much bigger gig than the York Daily Record, and deservedly so.
Even Vill could be Evil, but we all know it's just plain Bill.
Nice post. :-) WOWOWOWOW!
Yes. And, yet, we will see people come onto this thread and defend this liar and what he's lying about. We will have people coming here and pasting nonsense from some of the creationist sites into their messages.
It is a crying shame that the creationist side of this issue feels that it is OK to say untrue things in their attempt to push a scientific theory out of the schools. A shame.
It's the pills talking, apparently. At least in the case of this clown, anyhow.
However, anyone who's been on a crevo thread or two would know to expect something like this had to be going on there.
It would seem to me if you're going to make a test case of something, you'd choose your venue very carefully.
Maybe that's why DI pulled out. Could it be even they were appalled?
Thanks for the ping!
I would think that anyone who lies intentionally about these issues cannot possibly really believe in Christianity. If they did, they would have to speak truthfully. I mean, that's in the basic 10 rules.
It's something for good Christians to think about. If someone is telling you something that you know not to be true, or if it is demonstrated that the person is deliberately lying, then it might be worthwhile questioning which side they're on.
I have no problem with those who take Genesis as the literal truth. That's a matter of religious faith. I have a problem when people lie about things to try to get their religious beliefs taught as science in the public schools.
That particular phraseology has proven...touchy, in the past. I'm tolerably certain it contributed to the downfall of jlogajan, who rather regularly deployed it ;)
