Louisiana Science Textbook

[Damocles]

This is actually taught in schools, in science class, to 10 year olds.

The schools are state-funded and their science diplomas are worth the same as normal public schools.

As you know, I'm "a faith person" or whatever you want to term it (nut job most likely!) but that text book is bizarre to say the least. It is one thing describing a viewpoint in a classroom and letting the individual draw their own conclusions but that is just beyond the pale.

If that is a publicly funded school, it should have its funding cut if it is not prepared to alter the way it teaches.

I can't understand how a western country can accept this.

"The earth is thousands of years old". Fuck me. All that carbon dating malarkey of fossilised hominid bones a couple of million years old must be a load of bollocks then. And the dinosaurs too come to that.

Anyone who believes otherwise - burn them!

How anyone can doubt the science on this is worrying. How those people can be in charge of teaching future generations is far more worrying.
The creationist museum is a must on my travel itinerary if I ever get to America again.

And that children is why the church cannot do anything modern like...ergh women Bishops. Frightening.

The trouble is Damocles, that this 'kind' of science is being taught in some of our state funded Academies, those sponsored by the Grace foundation, or those of Vardy's and many more
