Digg Comment

I posted this to Digg yesterday and it got buried pretty swiftly. But I think I made a good point and I thought I'd put it someplace the public could get to it if they wanted. Quoted text in red.

"By wasting our time arguing whether it should be allowed in the classroom, we're taking time away from real scientific progress, and that could REALLY harm us as a culture as we're quickly slipping away from the technology-forefronted nation that we may have once been." -Rev. Mitcz

I'm sorry, I know this is off topic and I'll get dugg down,we have been teaching evolution and science as undisputed fact in our class rooms for at least 25 years. You can't lay the decline of American culture at religion's door step.

Corporate greed and the desire to maximize profits has put our focus on foreign and illegal labor.
Decadence and Hedonism have caused the American worker to want to do very little other than enjoy his personal wealth.
Money in the form of grants and ventures has skewed our scientific research from the altruistic to the profitable.
Corruption in our institutions has shaken confidence in both our government and our economy.
nah, don't blame God. We did this to ourselves.

And that's enough for now.
