eek…this is the second article in two weeks about intelligent design. i didnt bother posting about it the first time around because it wouldve been repetitive (religions stupid, blar blar blar). but seeing this topic pop up so frequently these days just worries me. while i have no problemos with peoples beliefs and whatnot, the last couple of years have seen a rise in the brashness of stupid religious organizations flailing about to point attention to themselves. and the topic of intelligent design in particular seems to have caught on with the masses of dumb people out there who would kill to see a religious foothold in public education.
here is the gist of the article, even if they dont use as eloquent wording. intelligent design is dumb. intelligent design is creationism written in legalese, and teaching it as an alternative in schools is not a “freedom of expression” or whatever because it has no basis or foundation or any right whatsoever to even be considered being taught in schools. and for all those who argue it should…they need to be beaten stupid and hopefully neutered, as so they cannot continue to produce offspring. my freedom of expression allows me to believe that gravity is actually controlled by benevolent alien sherpas who live on clouds and hop around with mallets, smacking us down whenever we float too far off the ground. is it freedom of expression? you betcha you sherpa-lover. should it be taught in the schools then? fuck no, because its dumb. and so are you if you think it should be taught.
