I'm curious - when I lurk through Terry's boards I see a lot of well-reasoned posts from "The Great Society" - does he post here under a different name? He seems like the type that would hang out here as well.
Just curious...

Re: Post of the Month (there)
It would seem that the teaching of evolution exclusively violates the provisions of the 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution since the Government is not supposed to legislate either for or against any particular religion.
Clearly that's an erroneous interpretation of First Amendment law. For instance, the various Defense of Marriage Acts or the prohibition against bigamy represent official government sanction of "religious" ideas. So religious thought can't be specifically prohibited from being considered as law, I guess.

Re: John A. Davison and Terry agree only that "Darwinism" is wrong
If I might cheerlead, I suggest turning Terry's phrase about drowning men clutching at straws back on him, as that's pretty much the perfect phrase to describe his support for JAD's cockamamie nonsense.
Man what a confederacy of dunces you have over there. How do you put up with it?
