Applause For Australia
Well done Australia!
My recent research on the teaching of ID (Intelligent Design) in schools, indicates that supporters of the dumb-ass doctrine are getting a good old ass-kicking down under! Their Minister For Education has said that he would allow it to be taught in religious education classes only and would not support any attempt to teach it as science, since it is not science. In addition, under no circumstances would he agree to let it supplant the teaching of evolution.
What a pity that American and British politicians are unable to see this kind of simple sense.
P.S. Hope this makes up a little for losing The Ashes...

Its nice to see that religious teachings are staying in a religious teachings class. Enough beating around the bush with fancy titles involving the word science or intellegent design (to take away the spotlight on a Godlike creation). I can easily come up with faith based assumptions, tack "science" onto a phrase, and call it science. The science of psychics anyone? Its bad enough we're finding John Edwards in the science section at book shops.
Is it the way Edwards is marketed do you think, or just bookstore employees don't know where to put him?
P.S. I could tell them...
