Keep going. Louisiana has stripped away all you complaints and excuses and has authorized teaching scientific alternatives to evolution. My question to you, for the umptheenth time is, now that you have the law on your side, what is it you teach? What is your lesson plan?

Obviously there is no lesson plan.

Creationism ===> Creation "science" ===> Intelligent design ===> Critical thinking, teach the controversy, its only a theory, etc. ad nauseam...

Its all a dodge to get fundamentalist Christianity taught in the schools as first, an alternative to, and then a replacement for, the theory of evolution and most of the other sciences with which creationists disagree.

In other words, they really want creationism taught either as science or in place of science.

The lack of a lesson plan, or even a sketchy curriculum, is telling.

What do you want to bet if any teachers actually try to teach the "scientific alternatives to evolution" it will be the same anti-evolution and anti-science nonsense we see on Answers in Genesis and this website; nonsense which was been considered and discarded by science generations or centuries ago.

Creationism is specifically ruled out by the law (which was written by the Discovery Institute).

But it interesting after thousands and thousands of posts to this and similar threads, and after being given a chance by a state government, no one has come forward with a list of things to teach.

The ultimate undoing of your premise that ID is only a ruse to inject a Christian theocracy into screwels is that not all that long ago, we had prayer in school, God wasn’t sued out of school, not to mention Christmas was actually ON the school calendar...

and what REALLY happened was the godless did PRECISELY what they’re whining about now, to the point the godless liberals have to sneak around and threaten legal action to get the FEDERAL HOLIDAY Christmas removed, and so on...

Forget going hunting today, your dog needs a funeral dude!
