A stand has to be taken.
If you allow the evil government to set common standards for English and Maths then the next stage is setting the standard for science.
Heathen Britain with its pinko lefty conservatives has just shown what happens if you allow them that dictatorial power in education.
They have just passed legislation which bans religious scripture being taught as science in science lessons.
Make a stand before it happens in the States

"That which we hate the most we become. "
The Christian conservative right is lending a lot of truth to that idiom these days. Just more and more preaching of a rigid doctrine that will eventually make the ME jihadists look like a bunch of wimpy pussy cats.
Similar to the middle ages, they don't seem to have a problem stomping on the free will of everyone.
I don't think I could stand by and watch as our country is turned into a religious right dictatorship. The lefty liberals had best mind their P's and Q's too.

In the past, many of my FB friends often post about getting God back in our nation, prayer in schools, etc. Once you take them through the argument they're forced to admit they want a govt. enforced Christian theocracy. At this level, many will give in some, at least while debating, then go right back to posting the same memes.

Course it may be the reason I have only about 50 friends.....and out of that group only 5 I get up with..

They have a tough row to hoe considering that whole "separation of church and state" clause. Churches hold Sunday school once a week. That's where prayer belongs for those who want to practice faith. Public school should always be focused on a secular curriculum. Not the force feeding of a religious doctrine or ideology. These hypocrite bible thumpers need to step back and reacquaint themselves with the concept of free will. Not this "we'll decide what's best for everybody" attitude they incessantly preach.
If I'm not mistaken, that's one of the core values of Sharia law.
Do as we say do ...or...

I see many complaining how Christians or losing so many rights in America. When you ask them to name one, they pull the same old rogue teacher out that scolded a student over the bible or something, which usually gets the teacher fired or school sued. Yet has one been able to point to any legal or constitutional right being taken away and of course I would be in their support if it did....

Extremism in any form is never, ever a good thing. But i have to say, as stupid as extremist liberals are, they couldn't hope to outdo the extremist conservatives in sheer stupidity, hypocrisy, and psychosis.

Far right Conservative christians cry bloody murder about how their right to religious freedom is being trampled, then turn right back around and do things like this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...n_1680083.html

I could make a 3 hour documentary using only the outrageously blatant and pure hatred of muslims that is being spewed from crazies like rush limbaugh and many anchors on fox news. You just cant describe the things they say as anything other than pure hate speech. It's so hypocritical it hurts. They want to talk about freedom and the trampling of rights?!?!?!

These are the same kind of people who are perfectly willing to sentence a 19 year old kid in texas to LIFE IN PRISON for pot brownies. AND THEY WANT TO TALK ABOUT FREEDOM!?!?! It literally is just so disgusting the delusion these people are under. I genuinely fear the far right nutjobs. May their god forbid them from holding significant power over this country.

Default Marxist or Marxman

We all know Ms. Bachman is out there on her own little limb.
Political winds tend to snap those limbs off when least expected.

Just another paranoid narcissist from the look of it.
