"Somehow, Im thinking she wasnt saying that whether or not evolution is actually real or not should be determioned locally, but whether or not to teach that should be a local decision, like all other curricula, should be determined by the locals, not the feds.."

Umm, well okay then, so we should allow local communities to TEACH how much 2 + 2 is, and each local community can also TEACH at which temperature water boils and freezes.

No one is arguing whether or not a woman must get a thingy shoved in her before she has a baby, BUT, BUT BUT, the decision whether or not to TEACH that to Chjildren In SCHOOL ( as opposed to at HOME, where religious, existential, type ideas Should be taught) must be kleft up to local communities.

NOW can ya see it?

doesnt mean we otta be teaching that to kids as a "This is where we came from" thing. Teach about gravity, but leave sex & the origin of mankind to the parents/ Or, at least allow the locals to decide, instead of Big Bro just steppin up & Tellin people what theyere gonna teach their kids about thnigs like this.

I think that sex matters should be taught by the parents the way they want to teach their kids,When I was in school we didn't have sex classes but some how people have been making babies for a very very long time.They want to teach them about gays and lesbians,We new about that they were called queers.Did you here about the queer bear that sucked is paw.

So,.. rather than look to scientists and educators for which scientific theories to teach,... they should ask you, and maybe a panel of teabaggers?...
Seriously,.. leaving it up to local communities will let children in overly religious, conservative communities fall behind in science and make them stupid,... lower SAT's and less college guaranteed... Will god make them content with sweeping floors?... They better hope so...

... and,.. did anybody's parents really teach them about sex?...
I learned from other kids (mostly wrong), and fumbled around learning for myself...
....(fun though)... Huh

It is a curious thing that most of us ardently believe that we solved the ultimate question of the universe before we even learned to tie our shoelaces.If philosophers,theologians,and scientists have struggled with the concept of existence for millennia without arriving at a definite solution,our naive assessment from childhood that a divine entity simply wished it were so certainly requires a reevaluation.It is nothing short of an incomprehensible tragedy that anyone in this age of reason would have to write a book debunking a collection of rediculious fantasies from an era of rampant superstition.
the above was written by a former Preacher,Jason Long PhD.

Actually, given IVF, children can be created without dad's equiment; just the "juice." thank you very much. (and an arduous and expensive process). (Except of course for that immaculate conception thing the Jews had goning on a couple thousand years ago (talk about cost control)). Huh

Heck, we still quarrell over Creationism vs Darwinism. How about the curriculum for the US legal system, did OJ get away with murder..you know you get two distinct points of view on that one, depending on race.

who teaches birth control???
-just dumb to ignore it

-local girl 15 lives in a camper, mom invited 20yr old in, who is now the girl's boyfriend. After a lot of pushing we persuaded the girl to see the school nurse. (wasn't on birth control) - her sister had her kid the month after she turned 16 with her 19 yr old boyfriend.
- thanks mom's of the world for teaching your daughters!!
-the only thing this mom said was don't be a very *friendly* person after she invited in the 20 year old to stay.

Boy Im happy someone explained this one to me,
Seems Christians were concerned about the dinosaur thing,finding bones millions of year old ,upset the bible crown who think the world is only 4000 years old, They explained (thank god) that god placed the bones all over the world and then made them look millions of years old, just to test our faith ,he sure is a sneaky bugger.,but I'm content now,arent you ?
