Georgie Bushs intelligent? design

Can it really be true?

Is it possible that we actually have a president who last week announced that 'intelligent design' should be taught in schools?

Yes, I'm afraid it's all true - and it's worse than you think. http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/nation/ny- usdesi054371665aug0...

See, George W. Bush didn't just advocate teaching the concept of intelligent design (i.e. creationism) in religion or philosophy classes - he said it should be taught alongside evolution as a competing theory.

The National Science Teachers Association is reportedly 'stunned and disappointed.' http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/ viewArticle.asp?articleID=1594

Man, if I were back in school now, I'd have a field day with this...

TEACHER: Now, does anyone know how lightning is created? Yes?

ME: God makes it.

TEACHER: What? No... anyone else? No? Okay - if a cloud bottom carries a negative charge and positive charges have collected on the ground, a 'stepped leader' - that's a negative electrical charge - comes part way down from the cloud. When the stepped leader gets within 150 feet of a positive charge, a streamer - that's a surge of positive electricity - rises to meet it. The leader and the streamer make a channel. An electrical current from an object on the ground surges upward through the channel. It touches off a bright display called a 'return stroke.'

ME: And you expect me to believe that preposterous explanation?

You know, if you just changed the word 'intelligent' for 'stupid' and 'design' for 'nonsense,' I think we might get somewhere with this debate.

See if i have this right? Libs steadfastly propose that 'there was this huge mass of gas(from where?) in an empty universe that somehow congealed and formed stars and then planets,etc. and that everything came about by MERE CHANCE!' Brilliant! Libs, LEARN MORE about I.D. then come back and tell us what you have learned! That'll be the day!!!

so - by your model, is this it?

a big man with a long white beard said 'let there be light.'

days later, adam ate an apple - and eve started bleeding between the legs.

Idiot religiouis reicher is terribly confused, not knowing the differencce between cosmology and biology.

<rofl!> Thor throwing lighning bolts!

I'm kind of glad that rightards are shoveling puddig into the heads of their spawn. It means my own children won't be competing with these rightard morons in the job marketplace.
