My colleague recently wrote a blog titled "If I had kids, I wouldn't trust them to Texas" (http://jtstexasstatestuff.blogspot.com/2009/04/if-i-had-kids-i-wouldnt-trust-them-to.html
In this blog JT explains the Evolution theory, and that she would not want to put her kids in Texas schools because of religion being forced on them. JT first goes over the physical evidence of evolution and quickly dismisses religion almost as wishful thinking/hoping. Then she analyzes the foundation of Christianity, the bible and how after thousands of years of hand written copies the translations must have been heavily misconstrued.
I actually do not have a problem with JT's view on evolution and for that matter the bible. I personally am a Christian so my personal response to JT and other millions out there with the same view is that why couldn't God have created evolution? Bare with me here for a second. He's omniscience right, so wouldn't he have known how evolution was going to play out? Thousands of years pass by him in the blink of an eye, thus leading to humans. I try not to get too caught up in the evolution debate because most people are set in their ways and its just a topic to stir people up. As far as JT's thoughts religion in schools I think people should have a choice, for the most part I think they do. Lets face it America seems to be "deChristianizing" more and more every day the public schools are becoming more and more politically correct therefore taking out any hints of religion. I personally don't care much for the PC BS, but thats why there are private schools for parents who want their children to be brought up in a Christian environment. Now funding for those schools is a whole different topic of debate.
