Take that Christan Fundies!!!
Today my 8th grade Science teacher gave us several options on what we wanted to next. The choices were earthquakes, plate tectonics or evolution. Well, guess what the vote was? Out of the 21 kids in my class 20 voted to learn about evolution. So take that you Christan Fundies, my class in a very Repub county (Bush, Forrester 70-30) we voted almost unanimously to learn about evolution!!!

5. No.
But we have a month left in school, and my teacher wanted to know which one we would want to do more. Since we picked Evolution, she said we could do it.

4. Watched "Inherit the Wind"
Its the first time I've seen it. That should be mandatory viewing in this country right now. It shows how backward the creationist looked IN THE 1920's. It is amazing to me that we are having this argument again. Teach science in Science class and religion in Sociology.

7. Is that a scientific poll ?
Let's be careful with stuff like this.

Conservatives could list hundreds of similar unscientific polls with results leaning their way.
