Re: An easy trap to fall into
If they really wanted to fight evolution, then they would want to learn as much about science and evolution as they possibly could, and they would want their children educated as well or even better in science and evolution so that they could carry on the fight. Fighting instead to impose ignorance and gross misconceptions on their own children and everybody else's child is completely counter-productive to their goal of destroying evolution.
Furthermore, they are setting their own children up to become atheists once those children start to learn science and discover how much their own parents had been lying to them. As Kent Hovind quoted a home-schooling advocate in his seminar tape #4 at 42min:55sec:
quote:
75% of all children raised in Christian homes who attend public schools will reject the Christian faith by their first year of college.
("Let My Children Go" video by Caryl Matritiano of Jeremiah Films, Access denied
Well, at least they're doing the good work of helping to spread atheism. Somebody say, "Hallelujah!" Amen!
Coyote, just thought you might appreciate a Mexicanism from Mexican President Portillo in a 60 Minutes in the late 70's:

It's been a long time since we've worn feathers.
