As the country becomes more and more diverse, one size fits all government controlled schools are less and less tenable.

poor poor Krauthammer goes on and on showing he is truly ignorant of science. Oh well when science is not part of an issue he is usually spot on correct.

evolution is a tautological "theory" whose only holding is that when there are gaps in some area of scientific knowledge, they are filled with faith the filling guess is correct.

Leaps of faith...
You can read all you want about the properties of gravity and math rules that describe it. But at some point you have to have some leap of faith that some part of the story is really true. There currently is no end to end explanation even in math rules that explains gravity. I do understand that.

What does anything smaller than a photon look like? How can we ever know as we can only see the processing of thousands of photons at a time. Literally nothing smaller than a photon is visible to humans. Believing what you cannot see is a leap of faith.

We create visual models that we believe represent that which we cannot see. More leaps of faith.
