    I was going to stay out of this but the "truth" comment dragged me back in again.

    What is truth, as a noted Roman official once asked.

    Teachers should not be imposing their truth, be it for a God or against a God.

    Keep religion out, teach science and maff and the kids can figure it out.

    Agree to a point. But according to the dumb bitch in the is article....you could argue 3+2=4 because she believes it to be true even though you can't prove it.
    I just read the link description. But more to the point, doesn't it equal 4?
    Not according to the right.
    So the left does? That seems stupid

    Telling the kids there is no god is teaching science
    Many scientists believe in god and find no problem teaching science without mentioning god.

    Seems like you have an agenda.
    Scientists believing in god has nothing to do with science. It's feelings and emotion which scientists have just as non scientists do.

    that's different from saying that telling kids there is no god is science. Science says there is no proof of god.

    I was going to make a comment about the god of the gaps (neil degrasse tyson has some good videos on this) but I changed my mind. It really just comes down to separation of church and state for me. Keep religion at home in the privacy of your own home, no need to bring it to school with you one way or the other.

    Ok. She should have told them there is no proof of god or Santa and told them they can believe in stuff there is no proof of (like man caused climate change) if they want to be weak minded imbeciles

    There is no law saying there is separation of church and state, only the first amendment which says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"

    Science also can't say with certainty there isn't.

    I'm still confused why Race wants math and science taught in this Reading class.

    I remember when liberals used to get upset when civil rights were trampled by Government.
    Since when is believing in a fairy tale a civil right?

    Either way, some civil rights are over rated.

    If we had left Sadam in power, to suppress the rights of ISIS members, things would be better over there.

    I for one, am glad that we suppressed the rights of our own radicals, such as the KKK.

    Since when is a man identifying as a woman or a caucasian identifying as a black a civil right?

    Have you found a job yet? Have to tell you, fixing my editing errors isn't going to pay well.

    I was augmenting your implication.

    Irregardless schools should stay out of that shit. And vice versa for the most part. Except if the hot English teacher wants to dress up like an elf for Christmas, then I'm down with that.

    He pays you to sit on your fat ass?

    As to why you might want a job, its so that you can live a better life. I doubt anybody living off of entitlements is enjoying it -- but with a (good) job, you can actually have a lot of fucking fun in this live. Travel a lot, eat at the Met, fuck a lot of women, fly your flying boat, etc.
