I sense that you will try to tell me how Evolution is somehow the same as Creation and should not be taught.
I would do nothing of the kind. Separation of church and state is a sacred part of our political heritage. I know very well the impossibility of catering to all the religions, therefore the need to keep it separate. There is nothing wrong with teaching the scientific approach, we just tack on our personal beliefs at home and at church, instead of ramming it down everyone else's throats at school.
For all your intelligence, you seem to miss the fundamental hypocracy of your stands. FWIW, I don't care a bit how you feel about science or homosexuality; what I am offended by is your need to tell me what I need to think. I think you are a flaming hypocrite to preach tolerance in one thread and run in here the next and jump on a soapbox with intolerance. I think you are arrogant to suggest I need to pull my head out of the sand when you can't clear the silicon from your own eyes.
"We can't teach religion at school!" What are you afraid of? That some religious kid will beat you up or rape you? What is this religious fear? Why shouldn't they work to forward their beliefs? I can understand how religious families feel when a secular holiday excludes them, change the holidays! "We need to be more toooooleraaaant about religion!" Funny how the argument seems so wrong when it doesn't support you, eh?
You aren't about tolerance, you aren't about improving society, you aren't about anything noble at all, you're just a self-serving hypocrite- just like the rest of us. The difference between us is I know it.
