Conservative Kansas Group Claims Teaching Science is Unconstitutional

http://www.kansascity.com/2013/09/26/4510659/lawsuit-filed-in-kan-to-block.html

The suit further argues that state would be "indoctrinating" impressionable students in violation of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution's protections for religious freedom.

See, America, this is why we can't have nice things.

I feel fvcking bad for their children.

  Well global warming shouldnt be taught as fact when there is plenty of arguements against it.  Same as Evolution, it really is not an science, it is more of an hypothesis.  

Crazies gonna craze.

are you serious?

The only issue for debate I can see is if the school tries to pass a theory as a fact, for example gravity.Fightingfan

a scientific theory is very different from the common usage of the word "theory"

  We already got a bible that you can read on your own, we got the internet, public schools are pointless.  

edit: so what I am sayying is...  Do we really need public schools teaching stuff that we can learn on our own?

'An' is only used infront of words with vowels, as you may (or may not) know 's' and 'h' are 'not vowels'.

They can teach their kids that if they want, but don't dumb down the public school system; find a private school or something.

liberals are equally crazy.  There are a lot of people that over do it when it comes to social issues

'An' is only used infront of words with vowels, as you may (or may not) know 's' and 'h' are 'not vowels'.

Inconsistancy

The English language is full of exceptions. A word with a silent h such as in honest is one such exception.

  What makes Global Warming true?  Ice cap melting, well they also grow, its called fluctuating, so I just uttered a refutation, but you probably already knew that.  What you got is confimation bias.  I had this conversation that five cups of coffee cant be healthy every day, but my mom refuses to believe that.  I could show her an article that states it, but she refuses to listen because she has been so used to her thinking.  She doesnt want to change her mind, because she has to admit she has been wrong for a long time.

No, because you make shit tons of flat out dumb posts. Your posts in this thread are simply a case-in-point. You're trying to speak about science while demonstrating that you don't really have any understand of basic concepts like the difference between a hypothesis and a theory.

Hard to say who actually believes what in either party. Politicians typically have to follow their parties cookie cutter mold in the public eye.

How is teaching Evolution promoting Atheism?. These guys are probably the same ones that make a big deal about Creationism not being taught in schools

oh you.

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If weve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. Were no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. Its simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that weve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back."
