Map of Publicly-Funded Creationism Teaching
Capt.Albatross writes "At Slate, Chris Kirk presents a map of schools in the USA that both receive public funding and teach creationism. It also shows public schools in those states where they are allowed to teach creationism (without necessarily implying that creationism is taught in all public schools of those states). There is a brief outline of the regulations in those states where this occurs, but the amounts involved are not discussed."
There needs to be more.

Give it a rest already.
How is that odd? Muslims and Jews aren't the fanatical threat to freedom and education that Conservative Christians currently are in America.
85-92% of people think evolutionists are wrong depending on how you measure it since every religion in the world disagrees with it. So to teach one theory beside another theory is just fine with me. There's no solid, indisputable proof that evolution occurred. There is only apparent evidence that the universe is a simulation or hologram. There is perfectly logical evidence that a superior intelligence created everything as well so like I said, all theories are theories and are backed by real evidence.
In case that last one confuses you, let's say Jesus makes water into wine. Scientists study the wine and determine the only way it could have been brought into being is growing grapes and fermenting them. Carbon dating and 100% of all other blatant evidence proves it yet in reality it was created instantly out of nowhere to have the appearance of being older than it was. The same applies to the Earth. So if any religion says a deity created Earth, then fossils and stuff were created on the fly as well.
Why? Well, in Christianity, the main religion in the US, the explanation is that God isn't allowed to show up in the sky and scream that he's real. It has to be taken on faith or it'd be unfair as an "open competition" according to the original terms and conditions with Satan after the Adam and Eve apple incident. So if we had indisputable evidence that the Earth was only 7000 years old because life came out of nowhere, that would break the rules. So he created fake fossils. It's a lot simpler with Buddhists. Everything doesn't actually exist in the first place, lol. It's hard to prove or disprove that but some science supports it.
So like I said, all 3 of those theories (evolution, Christian, computer simulation) are all equally unproven but with actual evidence behind them. So why teach just one? If you're truly open minded and examine all the actual evidence, a true scientist would suggest teaching every valid theory. Anyone who picks up a fossil and calls it the end-all evidence just because they're touching it clearly hasn't expanding their thinking enough to examine the true nature of physics and matter and space and reality. Similarly, "I don't religion" isn't a valid reason for teaching evolution.
Oh that's interesting. When did scientists prove without a doubt that the universe isn't a simulation and examined all matter and energy in existence and all dimensions, simultaneously disproving higher intelligence and God as existing? You'd think slashdot would have have covered that story.
Until those are true, evolution is simply a short-sighted theory that explains one possibility of our existence and creation and it doesn't even reach past 3 dimensional physical physics. You'd thin by 2014 we'd be past that. We've created antimatter, time dilation effects, anticipated multiple alternate dimensions, etc and people still pick up a fossil and say "nope, this must be the sole explanation."
In Many (most??) Public Schools are teaching Islam Tolerance and how great Islam is, with the help of CAIR. Including Field Trips to Mosques where they teach students to pray to Allah.

I know the big leftwing teaching the is the "Evils of Christianity", while teaching "Islam is a peaceful religion" in a kind of over compensating sort of Liberal "can't we all get along" sort of way. BUT the fact is, Islam will kill the pver sexualizing liberals first, when they get power. You best be praying to Cthulhu that will kill everyone first.
In short, if they ever did create a map of Islamic Teaching in America, CAIR would protest and it would be revoked.
