Progressive Education: Early August, and Kids Already in School
Come on now, I’m about as conservative as they come, including being an AGW skeptic, but the knee jerk bashing of the basics of evolution, which has *vast* coherent amounts of evidence in its favor, even if certain specifics are somewhat arguable (and real science is about getting better approximations of the ‘truth’ about the natural world), is a big loser.
Just because a few obnoxious evolutionists like Dawkins insist it proves their atheism does not make it so — there is plenty of room to say that evolution is how God creates (and he could easily ‘nudge’ it here and there).
And frankly any ‘young earth’ creationism is the worst sort of willful ignorance — some of the same physics that underlies dating the earth and stars also underlies nuclear power and weapons, make the GPS system work, and the semiconductor electornics that power the computer you are using to read this.
