In a stunning upset victory for common sense, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals threw out a lawsuit against a high school history teacher brought by one of his students who complained the teacher said in class that Creationism is "religious, superstitious nonsense." In the Olden Daze this would have been the sort of moment where the student raises his hand and says, "I disagree with you, shall we discuss this?" but eh, someone's homework assignment didn't exactly get done last night, how about he sues for an injunction instead? No more homework from that sharia atheist teacher again, ever!
I thought the Xtians insisted Creationism was a "Science" not a religion, thus allowing them to teach it in secular schools. Either/or, morans; Either it's a "Science" and the teach can mock it as much as astrology, or it's Religion and the student should keep it to himself.
<i>&quot;...there are more elements than earth, air, fire and water...&quot;</i>
Every parent knows the four elements are: 1) things that will poke your eye out 2) things you&#039;ll choke on 3) poisons 4) things that will be impossible to clean
XTians who reject science should be forced (by jackbooted government goons if possible) to live with Bible science, Bible medicine and Bible justice system. &#039;Cause it&#039;s a package deal: scientific techniques that make the scooter work also explains biology. Get over it.
I also thought the teacher was kind of harsh but then again I was not present during their discussion. I could imagine a scenario where a headstrong, highly religious student who insists on spewing his beliefs to the point of disrupting the class might cause a teacher to get a little pissed off.
Wow. You have my utmost respect for teaching kids all day long only to have them go home and let their parents undo everything.

It&#039;s probably not a good idea for college professors to get their research from Wikipedia.
I&#039;m not too sure they aren&#039;t.
How can primates look at teabaggers and not feel just a bit ashamed about &quot;that side of the family&quot;?
And don&#039;t talk trash about the Tooth Fairy either!

And that&#039;s just from the staff.
They&#039;re more likely to shoot you than argue w/ you.
well said.
i hope you and/or kid gave the jingoist a hard time.
his <i>constitutional rights </i>were violated because someone was mean to him?

In her case, she is living proof that some humans are evolving into monkeys.

I think one certain student is going to be getting more than his normal quota of atomic wedgies this year.
