If you weren’t sure, then why do you keep pinging him and leaving his name out?
That requires deliberate action to delete a name and ping to the post only.
It’s also intellectually dishonest.
It makes it awfully hard to believe that you weren’t sure what the mods meant.
It isn't, or they wouldn't be suing school districts into submission when the parents speak their mind and vote to allow the discussion of ID/creation.
Where in the Constitution does it say that the federal government has any business in the local schools? I can show you where the states have the rights not delegated to the federal government.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
This comes from the original United States here...(The Articles of Confederation.
Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled.
The Articles also state this...
And Whereas it hath pleased the Great Governor of the World to incline the hearts of the legislatures we respectively represent in Congress, to approve of, and to authorize us to ratify the said Articles of Confederation and perpetual Union.
What was our initial government? A theocracy?
==Yeah. I think they should receive poor grades for not mastering the subject.
Let’s suppose they were only teaching Creation/ID in the public schools. Should students receive D’s or F’s for challenging the science behind these subjects too?
Now that's what I call funny .

Amen!
There's science behind ID?
If ID was what was being taught and the students challenged it with evolution facts then wouldn't you expect them to be graded down?
You are bringing in old fights from other threads. That’s against the rules.
I have every right to argue points made on this thread.
Maybe for a little while, but my guess is you won’t last long.
Its a target-rich environment.
==If ID was what was being taught and the students challenged it with evolution facts then wouldn’t you expect them to be graded down?
Absolutely not. As long as they made a good case for their position, I would give them high marks. Conservatives tend not to go in for political correctness.
By your scale, I got a +65 for that comment. What say you?
exactly.

PS Interesting that you would openly identify with an overtly left-wing source like Wikipedia on your profile page. That speaks volumes about where you’re coming from, newbie.

As long as you are threatening violence, maybe you can get some help from these kooks. If they're not too warm and fuzzy for you.
I am sure Mr. Campbell was trying very hard to get the students to grasp those principles. But is it possible that by continuing to desire that the students direct their attention to macroevolutionary conclusions he risked underteaching the principles of mutation and microevolution? Paleontology and comparative embryology may have visual appeal but biochemical and population genetics give entry-level students a more solid foundation to build on, accrediting and other political organizations' recommendations notwithstanding.
Unfortunately, evolutionists like to conflate 'what biologists think' with 'the basics' when they have nothing at all to do with one another. This is known as the fallacy of equivocation.
Evolution is nothing more than multiple fallacies piled on top of each other. Begging the question is usually first, followed closely by equivocation, appeal to popular opinion, etc etc.
Would that include arguing that a majority of Americans have doubts about evolution?
I'm curious how this all out political war is going to be won. In the field and laboratory, or in the legislature?
He knows he’s been debunked on this...if we were going to realize a Theocracy in this country, Darwin would have never seen the light of day.
When we had prayer in school, we didn’t witness a Theocracy now did we?
On the other hand what we DO now realize is that godless liberals have managed to do EXACTLY what they preach against: a secular only society where Chirstianity is shoved behind closed doors.
Name one institution where godless liberals have been objective be it:
journalism
law
politics
education in general, science specifically...etc. etc. etc.
Godless liberals are destroying the fabric of our society!
FINALLY good decent people are fighting back THIS NONSENSE!
