"...evolution in public schools is a topic for another day. It has been disproved...."

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And... let me guess... the SUN still rotates around the EARTH, right? And mental illness is demonic possession... and infectious diseases are best treated with blood letting... and the best way to detect a witch is to strap the accused to a board and dunk her under water, right? If the water 'rejects' her, she *is* a witch, and can be burned... while if the water 'accepts' her, she was *not* a witch... and can be buried in sanctified ground.

Sounds like you've found your candidate for Education Secretary, Pro!

"These secular liberals are the very people who took prayer out of schools, the Ten Commandments out of schools, are proceeding on taking the Bible out of all the school libraries, and are so angry that some want an alternative view of Darwin’s failed and unproven theory that they will go to any length to make sure that God stays out of the public scene."

What a hate filled, unreasonable, diatribe.

This moron believes his values are being "attacked" just because he isn't allowed to jam them down other people’s throats.

Personally I have nothing against Religious types believing what they want - just don't force it on me. For instance, why should I hate homosexuals when I have NEVER had any homosexual ever do any harm to me? As long as they mind there own business why should they be prosecuted or discriminated against? People are different - its the nature of being human.

I think the Bible is obviously a flawed document. It endorses slavery, rape and arbitrary murder for instance. It's impossible for me to take seriously.

The thing is many, many people do not agree with a Christian conservative Point of view. It is therefore totally reasonable that a common meeting grounds in our society be "culturally neutral" and that the public Schools be "secular".

Send your kids to a Christian school if you want - its your right in our society.

Evolution has been Disproved? Come on, Pro....you can't buy that? Disproved how? By empirical scientific study?

Evolution as a scientific concept has been disproved?
