Dumb as a Fucking Rock

On the bright side, they've turned over their textbook review to panels of experts instead of elected officials, so the problem may correct itself in time.
I'm just... not surprised.
Quote:"I think we got off the track when we allowed our government to become a secular government freed the slaves"
Right, because the Bible demonstrates nothing so much as Yahweh's deep love of the principles behind the 1st Amendment. Do these idiots ever listen to themselves?
I'm not so deeply educated in things American, but I would think the date when America became secular was roughly pretty much exactly on July 4th, 1776, no?
I guess it's just like a Christian to credit god with writing a man-made document.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
