Oh, Lord! Colorado is probably next! I just don't understand what the Fundies' big problem with evolution is. OK, they seem to want to believe that man was a "special" creation of God as near as I can figure, and the process of evolution isn't "special" enough in their opinion. So? Well? Why can't they be happy with just brain washing their OWN children and handing out religous tracts? Do the Fundies think that the study of evolutionary science will inspire a young person to lead a life of crime and sin? How come evolution is bad, but the Fundies are more than happy to take advantage of medical treatments which were developed and discovered using the exact same scientific principles as the ones used in the study of evolutionary science? Like, it seems to me the use of anti-biotics should be considered a sin as well. How about cancer research (we'll leave stem cells out of it)? Wouldn't it be evil to get treatment for cancer? If I had a vision that God told me the gasoline powered engine was evil and I wrote down this vision in my own Holy Book, could I campaign against the teaching of engineering since it argued against MY system of belief? I just don't get this stuff!
