Seriously. ...Please ... end Teh Stoopid!
Our country, the world, and right here in Texas, we are struggling with rising unemployment, the nation's worst rates for child homelessness, simultaneously last in children with health care and in those recieving high school diplomas, increasingforeclosures, the reverberating shocks of a global recession, ...and a Governor who turns down stimulus money.
Stimulus funds that would have helped those struggling to support their families, those who have lost their jobs, lost their health care and those seeking to better educate themselves.
And your still stuck on evolution?
Follow me for the rest...
If you board members don't get how important it is to have a well educated work force right here in Texas, who will be able to compete in a global economy, then you have no business being on the Texas State Board of Education!
And as if all this wasn't enough, we have some of you members of the Texas Board of Education, who decide what students all over America will learn in school, ....and some of you Board Members, sad to say, still don't understand that the controversy of "whether or not Evolution occurred"...
is OVER!!
It's DONE!!
SETTLED!
Stop arguing semantics!
Was the shame and embarrassment of Dover in Kansasnot clear enough for you?
What part of multiple discoveries of transitional fossils as clear evidence of evolution, do you not understand?
Do you understand... maybe understand is too much to be expected... do you realize that
a) Theory of Evolution
and
b) Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection
are two different points of understanding?
Evolution really happened (rock video version)!!
While Darwin's Theory of Natural Selection (which is how he explains evolution) is continuously supported bynew found evidenceof species evolution and natural mutation, ...the FACT that Evolution did occur is no longer in question!
Did you get that memo??
Do you still think all the dinosaur bones all over the world are a hoax planted by an invisible devil??
If you truly have a different theory of evolution, then present your studies and the empirical data..
Otherwise it is not science and should not be taught in science class.
Period.
And unless you can show how there is any more scientific evidence for Intelligent Design than there is for theFlying Spaghetti Monster, then you all need to include the FSM in science class also.... if not, then shut yer f'kin pie holes!!
As the saying goes..."you are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts."
And if you must pray, pray ye like this:
"Dear Lord, please let us be stupid no longer!"
For as the Lord says," ... come, let us reason together."
