now i have here at my hands
a picture

so ladies and gentlemen
there you have this fourth grade science quiz grated one hundred
first off let me just say this as having a first-grader in public school in new
york
i can tell you that if my kid got this test nevermind
what the answers are
true or false
but this past
for a fourth grader
is appalling
just even if you
can't accept
the answers just a level of rigor that is involved in this is appalling
this is an actual test
given at the blue ridge christian academy
it's a private religious school
can legally teach this
that is out raging the uh... the author here
my complaint of one is one of simple reality and great creationism is wrong
and it's certainly not
science
be promulgated or of this truly awful group
answers in genesis forty years of benefits
a font of nonsense go tax on science in reality
uh... has
apparently helped with the curriculum at this school
the author writes
this isn't learning it's indoctrination
it's the exact opposite of inquisitive miss its children just being told what
creationist want the answer to be despite the evidence
and it's not just be shows are not being told something wrong has that they're
also being told to simply accepted into denial actual evidence they come across
future generations folks
and if these people have their way not only with a continue to teaching this
in there
private academies or mid ross's
as they're known and other parts of the world
but they will also insist that this creationism be taught in public schools
and they will also insist that
public funding
in the form of vouchers subsidizes this being taught
to other
students
so uh... welcome to the future folks
and i still can't get off about
remedial that test was
he still doing one sentence old true and false questions for fourth graders
man oh man
caterers syllabi account of what
uh...
trades
out
