The recent decision by the Kansas Board of Education to ban the teaching of evolution and anything else that disagrees with creationist views has left many people wondering, What will they teach in science classes? It's also left a few people wondering, Was this group the Board of Education or the Bored of Education? Well, we've obtained an authentic copy of a science test to be given to ninth graders in Kansas. As you can see from the following test, they do mention evolution and natural selection. Answers are given at the end.
Quiz for Students in Kansas Public Schools

Answers:
1. (a) It took 5 days for the creation of the universe and all the plants and animals. If you answered "b" (6 days), you were probably thinking of the time it took to create the universe, the plants, the animals, and the people.

I can't see where I said anything to him nearly as bad as has been said to me, if people can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. There will never be a day I respond to someone worse than they do to me, you of all the people here should know that and I'm disappointed in your response.

Relax GC, don't be mad. I was just joking around. Even you have to admit the meat thing was pretty funny.
You've gotta be able to laugh at yourself sometimes, man.
I'm not mad, and I did laugh at myself, how I managed to do that one is even beyond me, must be loosing my mind.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I would like you to record the above while speaking and then play it backwards; maybe, then, it would make sense.
You should read all the posts I've already explained it, besides I figure someone as smart as you could have seen the E was missing.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Could you please clarify whether you do or don't want us to point out your spelling mistakes? Because if you're going to complain when no one points them out, I'm not going to do you the disservice of not pointing them out anymore.

I see the only reason atheist jump on my spelling is because it's the only argument they have against what I've said. I hardly ever see atheist correcting each others spelling and everyone here knows that is true. I've seen atheist here misspelling words all the time and I say nothing about it, why, because I make the effort to figure out what was intended and usually can. I do not see that it's important to call out people for misspelling words or using the wrong word such as I did with the word meat instead of meet. Really if I can figure out what others are saying despite their misspelled words those who claim their superior spelling ability should easily be able, too. Like I said to begin with I see people who point out others misspellings and offer no other argument to a post are without an argument. I don't mind being corrected it helps me to improve and I have, what I mind is the superior attitude that's used in such correction. I know my own weaknesses it's why I try and look up any word I have doubt about spelling it.

Actually it's because everyone knows that you don't ever understand the reasons why your arguments can be easily refuted and so can't be reasoned with. Theists like you serve to act like wounded prey being given to newly hatched atheists to practise on.

You nor anyone else has ever defeated anything presented from scripture. Those newly hatched atheist you are speaking of mostly use bad language and senseless talk to make an impression on the older atheist here, and you guys fall for it and defend such drivel. Shame on you for lowering yourself to such a level.
