“Students have a choice between the School of the Left, which embraces science as well as progressive thinking which can lead to radicalism, and School of the Right, which embraces Creationism at the peril of both science and critical thought, and which can also lead to radicalism.”
There is an engineering term to describe this passage: “horseshit”.
1. The left does not embrace science, except to champion the parts that support their agenda, without understanding any of it. A lefty uses “Science” the way a fundamentalist would say “God”, to indicate something they can’t understand, but have graet faith in.
2. Progressive thinking? This term should always be in quotes, since when applied to leftist ideology it refers to the opposite of progress – and thought. “progressive” ideas all seem to lead backwards, to an all-powerful state. That’s regress, going back to absolute rulers, not progress.
3. It’s improper to fault the “School of the Right” for a loss of critical thought, since the left betrays absolutely no comprehension of the term. I constantly hear lefties bemoan the lack of “critical thought” on the right; I never see them demonstrate any themselves.
