Ok... So What the hell is with Kansas?... I can understand the debate that goes on over teaching intelligent design vs evolution... I don't think it has much merit, but I can see how people might push it... What I have an impossible time with is the Kansas Board of Ed redefining Science... Apparently science now no longer needs to look for "natural explanations" for anything... So now, if you live in Kansas, it would be ok for someone to tell you, you are sick, because there is a small unhappy dwarf living in your abdomen... Or, that you didn't crash your car because you were driving badly, but because a giant ethereal hand appeared and pushed your car in to the mini-van full of kids...
What The Fuck!!!
You can convince me of the supernatural when you can show me some hard proof... Possibilities exist for everything... But they're just that, possibilities... They're not science... They're not logical... You want to discuss the supernatural, take a religious studies class, or some fruity philosophy class... Don't try to water down science with what can not be proven... The Theory of Evolution is in fact a Theory, and not a law... It was never explained as a law to me, it was always a Theory... I accept it as a Theory... The idea of someone/something creating everything is pretty bloody well clear as a religious idea...
Every time I hear from anyone in the intelligent design realm, they are spending their time attacking the theory of evolution, rather than trying to actually support their idea...
I am so terribly glad I decided I don't want kids... There is no way in hell I would let them go to a school system that let this shit fly...
