no candidate has ever won NH and then SC since these early primaries started.
Our children may be going to public schools after all?
Anyhow, I don't see Mitt Romney grabbing more than 40-42% of votes in this, esp since Santorum is going to swipe some of his base away.
He is the Mr Burns choice for the uninspiring 100k-1 mil Boston commuters in Southern NH , their wives, and that's about it for his voting base actually.
Why not teach both?Will you be able to object to the curriculum that doesn't teach evolution and instead teaches creationism as I have a feeling that is the brand of religo....I mean science that you are going to get?
I would assume anyone can object however, if you or anyone else did not know, NH is one of the least religious states in the U.S. and also, this state is one of the best performing regarding public school education. I'm not sure what those two basic things would argue for against, perhaps different "sides"...Will you be able to object to the curriculum that doesn't teach evolution and instead teaches creationism as I have a feeling that is the brand of religo....I mean science that you are going to get?
Why not teach both?
I vaguely remember being taught in school the theory of evolution. It was presented as a theory not as cold hard fact. Not once did I hear the teacher say it was or wasn't a proven theory. They did mention that it was in part in conflict with many religions teachings. If I remember correctly it was one six week term that both were taught. 5th or 6th grade I think. We weren't asked to choose between them, just remember the things they told us long enough to pass a test. If it was the 6th grade I probably failed that test, I did most tests that year.
Granted I haven't taken any advance science courses or really done any in depth research. However I can see where in some areas that science and religion tend to support one another to a small degree. I've read a few debates on this and I find that both rely, to an extent, on faith. Scientificos (lol made up word) have faith that the scientists have it all figured out and proven, when in actuality a lot of the proof is nothing more than speculation formed by a given number of assumptions. Religion relies on faith of a creator of everything, that is also forgiving and loving for the believers. Science scares the hell out of people and religion gives them hope. Both faith based IMO.Yeah, I was about the same. I think we are not to far off in age from one another so I'm guessing we got roughly the same lessons. I remember as well calling it theory but that word can be more than we think. We have germ theory but it's treated as peer reviewed fact and a science built around it. I consider evolutionary theory to be on that same scale but too each his own!
