(a poll) found a strong majority of Americans supports letting teachers explore both "strengths and weaknesses" of evolution
They use this as a reason to teach intelligent design? ugh. who isn't in support of teaching the strengths and weaknesses of evolution?

We take a relatively small sample size and generalize it to an entire era of life on earth, obviously there are going to be "flaws' or "mistakes".

but to suggest that Intelligent design is an alternative or competing theory is just mind boggling. if someone can come up with an alternative, scientifically provable theory to how life evolved on earth, i'm all for them teaching it, but to suggest the earth is only 10,000 years is beyond 'wrong' it's just plain insane.

Oh, and in case you didn't know, the stars aren't really there, it's just a blanket god puts over the birdcage when it's time to go to sleep.
