Fire John Freshwater ... For the Right Reason

Religion – "When he decides to use his public school classroom to shove his beliefs down student throats, he's in the wrong and should obey the order to keep his class secular. And when his personal beliefs so scramble his judgment that he can't even teach the evidence and logic of science, his professional duty, fire him."

Giuliani attacks Democratic health plans as 'socialist'

Politics – Giuliani: "That's a European way of doing something; that's frankly a socialist way of doing something. That's why when you hear Democrats in particular talk about single-mandated health care, universal health care, what they're talking about is socialized medicine. Government cannot take care of you. You've got to take care of yourself."

Pope Benedict admits evidence for evolution

Our Earth is talking to us and we must listen".

Don't 'debate' creationists!

Religion – Today the United States is being confronted with large numbers of scientifically ignorant, politically active Christians who are locked into ultra-religious, anti-scientific views and who want to force these views on others through our elected officials, our courts, and our schools. Creationists can generate lies more quickly than you can refute.

Science – The lower jaws of mammals contain only one bone, whereas those of reptiles have several.
