Matt Singleton, a Baptist minister, is one of the opponents who spoke to the board about why the standards should not be adopted, according to The Courier-Journal. “Outsiders are telling public school families that we must follow the rich man’s elitist religion of evolution, that we no longer have what the Kentucky Constitution says is the right to worship almighty God, Singleton said. “Instead, this fascist method teaches that our children are the property of the state.Evolution a religion, or even like one? I don't think so. I guess these religious people get that notion because people such as myself use the word "believe" when we say something to the effect: " I believe the science!". Which is not the same thing as believing in a myth, of course. That would be like saying that family is a religion when it's said: "I believe my (insert relation here)!"

Some religious people are actually that dumb, but some are smart enough to take advantage of the ignorance of the dumb ones in order to advance an agenda.

So, who are the assholes?

“Outsiders


Your fellow Americans are "outsiders?" That's basically hate speech and the same tactics that Hitler used to alienate the Jews.

are telling public school families that we must follow the rich man’s elitist


Well, he's certainly trying to hit every hot button in one sentence.

religion of evolution,


That kind of misinformation and propaganda is REALLY disturbing. He takes science and makes it a "religion" so that he can warp emotion distort reality.

that we no longer have what the Kentucky Constitution says is the right to worship almighty God,


Yeah I figured this would come next. Once you've established that sciences a religion, you can break out the chest pounding about how it's not your religion and how you are being discriminated against. Ignorance as a way of life.

How ironic is it that he mentions fascism as he uses their very propaganda tactics? And where he gets that volition leads to slavery is beyond me.

It is SAD that a country that has, more than any other, reaped the profits of science and its breakthroughs should actively try to turn its back on it.

Implied: His "God" is the ONLY God allowed in America. That, despite the U.S. Constitution strictly forbidding that. Guess he forgot that, eh?

Dangerous malcontents that should be exposed, reviled, and ousted.

(or put up on the internet for the intelligent people to poke fun at and use as an example of human ignorance and stupidity!):wah:

Well, if Science is a religion, it would be my religion.

I believe in God, and consider myself a Christian, but I will take Science over ignorance, every time.
