    Are you even aware of the lengthy effort by conservatives to stop teaching evolution in public schools — ever since they lost the Scopes Monkey trial? These are items that Republicans have definitively stated they want stopped being taught in public schools - over and over.

    What does my awareness of the Scopes Monkey
    Trial have to do with anything. The things that
    you forum rats like to argue about is absurd.

    Which schools are teaching gender theories? What are you even babbling about.

    You do realize the results of the Scopes Money trial and other legal suits allowed evolution to be taught in schools. Since then in North Carolina and other states numerous bills have been introduced to ban the teaching of evolution in public schools despite the rulings in these trials. Also numerous public school teachers in rural counties have been improperly punished over recent decades for teaching subjects like evolution which are in the state curriculum. This new bill is just the latest attempt to stop evolution ("because man is not related to monkeys"), cell theory ("because vaccines are fake"), gravitation ("because the earth is flat") and other scientific principles which displease conservatives from being taught in schools.

    There should be no surprise that the U.S. public educational system is quickly falling behind other countries in STEM subjects -- when Republicans object to mainstream science from being taught.

    Except climate change does occur, it's a natural, observable phenomena.

    Here you go, since you do not seem
    to be keeping up with current events:

    I have already addressed this topic.

    Carry on.

    You have addressed nothing. Maybe you pushed complete nonsense -- but that is not addressing the reality that this bill is aimed at stopping the teaching of proven scientific theories in public schools which conservatives disagree with -- including evolution, cell theory, and gravitation.

    Perhaps, but that is a matter of opinion.

    When I was in grade school, we were told
    that California was going to break off and
    fall into the Pacific Ocean.

    That was an early form of climate change
    education and it was a bunch of nonsense.

    I addressed your questioning me about the
    Scopes Monkey Trial, so stop trying to
    baffle me with your bullshit.

    As to what Conservatives agree or disagree
    with, you have no knowledge about any of
    that and you sound foolish.

    And since I don't argue with fools, I will
    talk to you whenever.
