Evolution: Victory!

Disclaimer?

"This textbook contains material on evolution. Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully and critically considered."

No shit.

I was taught the "Theory of Evolution." No one ever told me that it was the only answer to existence. No one had to tell me that I should "carefully consider" other options either. That's basic science!

Scientific Method calls for careful consideration of all hypotheses. An hypothesis becomes a theory after it's been carefully tested repeatedly, and when each trial results in the same conclusion. A theory then becomes a law when all other alternatives have been proved incorrect. It's not the LAW of evolution, it's the THEORY of evolution. It's STATED CLEARLY in the terminology.

You don't have to cram it down our throats that you're a Christian Fundamentalist and that your opions are just as valid and should be heard. That's freedom of speech and it's stated within the 1st amendment to the United States Constitution. We KNOW that your voice should be heard. We allow it. Now allow OUR voice to be heard. Stop trying to drown out others' opinions by constantly talking over them.

By the way, shouldn't we also be teaching Reincarnation as an alternative as well? Let's not be selective now. I'm glad the judge ruled the disclaimer stickers as unconstitutional. They are!

Freedom of what?

In the continued race to ban free speech and free press:

"We don't decide for the community whether to read this book or not, but whether to make it available."

I beg your pardon, but I don't believe it is your job to decide what is available to the United States public. Free press is just that, freedom to print whatever you wish to print. As soon as government starts to "decide...whether to make it available" it becomes censorship.

Oh, the irony!

In an article about sex spammers from CNN:

"The law gives consumers a tool to control what comes into their in boxes,"

This Pisses Me Off

The MEXICAN GOVERNMENT is distributing a comic book that gives instructions to Mexicans on HOW TO SNEAK INTO THE UNITED STATES!!!

Are you kidding me? Actually distributing a manual on "how to" cross the border into the US? How can we allow this? How is this real? How can we stand by and allow a country to encourage its poor, poverty-striken people to run away to "wealthy" America and steal our money? How about a book that explains how to go about LEGAL immigration? How to obtain a visa, green card or working permit? No, instead, they don't solve their problems, they hide from them. "We don't know how to fix our poverty problem, so we just tell them to go somewhere else."

Somewhere else where they will continue to destroy the standard of living and cause the deterioration of progress.

I'm sorry, but I'm not racist. I'm tired of being surrounded by illegal foreigners who use false social security numbers and fake IDs to earn money from a legitimate US company and then proceed to not pay taxes and then are given rights to obtain drivers' licenses as well as force my country to change its language. For what? So that we can converse with YOU? How about learning the local language so that you can converse with us?

There was a time when my Italian greatgrandfather forbid his children to speak Italian becuase "you are Americans now, and you should speak English, AS Americans!" If I wanted to work in Germany, do you think they would start learning English to make my life easier? Hell no! They would make me learn German in order to speak with them.

If we're going to extend language rights to Mexicans, and other Latino nations, why not force French upon the US to appease the Candians?

The world needs more tsunamis.
