wande- you were specifically asked how you know where the bottom of the page is. You obviously know so why are you not telling us.
And would you explain what the activities of the "circulating elites" in Florida have to do with whether ID is Science or Religion.
And it isn't clear to me yet that not using the word "evolution" in
biology classes causes a problem relating to the "fundamental organizing principle of modern biology."
Isn't Mr Rosenau's statement tautological. If he thinks using "evolution" is a fundamental organising principle of modern biology then it is obvious that he will think as he does.
What about others, such as Dr Aidley, who wrote his 500+ page The Physiology of Excitable Cells without mentioning the word, and his biology is on another plane of existence to biology lessons under the supervision of the Florida school boards?
I'm inclined to think that the NCSE should employ another spokesperson. What's a spokeman for an organisation like that doing making propaganda of the lowest type? He must think we are all thick.
But here we go--this is the business end-
Quote: I think that boards of education are, of course, not experts in the subject matter, so they should take the advice of their experts and go on from there.
Oh yeah. Your life in their hands again. And he only "thinks" it anyway because it's a "nice little earner" as Arthur Daly used to say.
Quote:The Lerners hope that the professorship will motivate other departments to search more diligently for promising young women.
Right on Prof. We can all agree about that.
He's busy creating a monument to his presence on earth and he looks like he brushes his hair over his baldy yed.
The Lerners, for there is a Mrs Lerner of some dignity, as one might expect,
Quote:have set aside half of their estate to establish the Lawrence S. and Narcinda R. Lerner Professorship in the Department of Chemistry.
The Union of Gold Letter Illuminators will be chuffed about that mouthful.
I don't know if he has any kids but if he has I'll bet they're over the moon about his endowment.
Tell me wande, how does what these individuals you catch in your net have to say bear on the topic you originally posted. I daresay if one trawled in other waters, further offshore say, one might find a professor to say almost anything.
He seems to have waved the white flag at the sight of a few feminists. Mrs Lerner has him well in hand I would say.
Quote:He now consults nationwide on K-12 science curriculum, with particular interest in the teaching of evolution in public schools.
Cash interest eh? As it's his job every utterance he utters is utterly predictable to the uttermost ends of time.
Do you mind wande! Viewers don't read here to glaze their eyeballs with that tripe. They come on to find things they don't know. It's called Able 2 Know. They don't come on to read-
Quote:In science class we teach science. Intelligent design is not science, and on that standard, it doesn't belong in a science class.
for the n-hundredth time. And it's gibberish. There's two tautologies right there. And who is this "we".
If I offer an explanation of why ID is science and a great deal of science isn't science, as I have done, why don't you argue with that instead of taking another trip on your merry-go-round.
