A.C.E.
A.C.E. they call it, another American import that’s gained some ground in the UK thanks to the assistance of Blair’s religion-tainted, poorly thought through policies. If you’re a religious nutter wishing to poison the minds of defenceless children, (with the blessing of their god-befuddled parents of course) then all you need is £2 million and the British government will give you more money so you can set up a school where you can decide what the kids will be taught.
Accelerated Christian Education, is just another pathetic attempt by Creationists to subvert reason, evidence and the fact of evolution and replace it with nonsense, silly ideas and fairy tales. There was a saying popular some years ago that went: “Give me a child till the age of seven and I will give you the man” there is much truth in that unless you send your child to an A.C.E. school where the much more appropriate slogan would be: ”Give me a child as young as possible and I will give you the non-critical, non-thinking, easily-fooled, easily-controlled obedient dolt”.
All this child abuse is being perpetrated under the banner of diversification and inclusion, all very fine if you don’t realise that diversity is only good if wisdom drives it. A.C.E. is an excellent example of stupid diversity and even dafter inclusion! The obvious political agenda of being diverse and inclusive (vote winning) is taking precedence over the education and future of our children, and cannot be allowed to continue.
Richard Dawkins has oft-times said that just because there may be two opposing ideas does not mean that they should be given equal weight, one of them may be simply wrong; that is the case here. A huge body of observable evidence that underpins all of biology and medicine supports the theory of evolution, no educated person denies this. The creation myth is just an idea that has no observable evidence at all supporting it, and is therefore not even a worthy alternative to evolution and should not be given anything like equal consideration.
I propose the following idea that the government - in order to avoid a derisory public response - would have to back.
The raising of £2 million would be easy for the number of us atheists in the UK without being a burden on any individual (I would certainly donate), we could elect the appropriate leader and start our own school also named A.C.E. (Accurately Conducted Education) We would of course, teach the kids evolution and the creation myth and let them make up their own minds, Evolution would naturally take longer to teach than Creationism, but at least the pupils could have a good laugh before moving on to serious study.
In conclusion readers, I don’t really like the name “Accurately Conducted Education”, if you can think of a better one, feel free to comment.

ACE: Agnostic Children Excel
Quite good, but it does label the children. We shouldn't really do that. Thanks for the feed back though!
