I just got a big fat error message and lost 30 minutes worth of post with serious words.
Long post short, fat chance the scientists will be able to convince the unwashed masses. We all know the creos will win by using strawman and deception.

Re: it makes me sick
I don't know whether you're serious or not, but I have no doubt that it is one of the reasons why creos have it so easy with the crowd. They know how to please people. They are willing to put chocolate pudding around crap and sell it as candy.

Sorry about that. You kinda sounded like one of those nutcases that believe the gov requires children to go to school so it could brainwash them.

Do the school board reps really doubt the veracity of evolutionary theory themselves, or is this just a case of politicians pandering to a perceived bias against evolution in their overwelmingly religious electorate ?
The problem is almost anyone can get onto the school board. In central Illinois a few years back a 18 year old christian fundy creo got on the board in Normal.
Just because these people are on the school board doesn't mean they can read.

Gallop pollsGallop polls show that there is a correlation between the level of education and support for evolution.

i am a christian and i can read just fine. what if god made me smarter?
Those two sentences contradict with each other, considering that I never said that all christians can't read or less smart than non-christians.
