which is good as that's about all little Johnny or Suzie will be qualified for if they go to school in Kansas or any other wacko place that El Chimpizente has now given encouragement to.
The President and Intelligent Design
That sound you hear is the "pop" of several billion Chinese and Indian economic planners getting simultaneous erections at this:
President
Bush invigorated proponents of teaching alternatives to evolution in
public schools with remarks saying that schoolchildren should be taught
about "intelligent design," a view of creation that challenges
established scientific thinking and promotes the idea that an unseen
force is behind the development of humanity.

Seriously. Here you are, Tsui or Sanjay, looking at a new cenury. A
century in which the exponential curve of technology's rise becomes a
sheer cliff. In which only the most intellectually nimble countries,
best able to master new information technologies and couple them with
manufacturing bases with high levels of technical training, will
survive.
And you're looking at that big bastard across the
ocean, the US of A. First to build the Bomb. First to master the
secrets of the atom. First to build the semiconductor. First and only
tribe of humans who actually put men on the GODDAM MOON, to have stepped on another rock in space. Decoders of the human genome, the VERY BOOK OF LIFE !!! How will we ever stop --
Wow, they forfeit. Cool. (Kung Fu Monkey)
I personally subscribe to the pink fairies from outer space theory and think that should be taught as well but I've recently been reading about the Flying Spahetti Monster theory and there seems to be quite a bit of evidence in it's support. I think I can provide as much evidence for the pink fairy theory as the ID'ers can for their's but I have to admit that the grand unified FSM theory may have more evidence than both. The world of ideas and dreams is so wonderful. No longer do we have to be bothered with facts and other silly nonense that gets in the way.
