Greeting's Mr.Infidel!
I just was looking at your Mt.Hood webcam...that snow look's nice in late august ...it is 93 degree's here in Dallas right now.
Very interesting post at least for me on Texas High School Bible Curriculum. You see...back awhile ago I did a post called something like "Texas BORED of Education" because so much talk was going on in Austin with the school board on what you can teach and cannot teach etc.To be honest...it was so damn confusing,and these bastard's purposely make it like that, they are very cunning and sly on how they sneak stuff around when it comes to religion.I DONT trust a damn bit of it..there should be NO RELIGION theories taught in public school's period...and especially the bible...I have nothing against the bible...it's just that it has nothing to do with education any more than any other religious doctrine book. I also heard that muslim's in Texas got wind of this...and some feel their quran or whatever should be in as well. I have no idea where any of this is going...but these decision's in Texas have 10 year period's,before they are dealt with and voted on again. I know one thing...they better watch their ass...because there are some here that do NOT approve of this and one false move if any of this get's established...they will have a handful of lawsuit's to deal with, they can bank on it! I have a 13 year old grandson in Dallas Public School's that will be entering high school soon,so I am concerned with this. Another thing is that Dallas school's are 92% minority, and most of the minority here is latino and afro american... I know for a fact that most latino's and black's grew up in catholic/christian belief families, and may be more acceptable to this.
On the other hand I did get a big laugh out of "Creation Museum Science fair" I know this isnt meant to be a laughing matter,but when you read it...it is hard not to laugh.
Michelle Obama's short's? This is new to me ... I wonder if there were any concern's over her panties?
That post about the aetheist bill board bellyaching...they have them same billboard's off Dallas area freeway's.Havent heard nothing about it here yet as far as complaint's...I only pay attention to the one's for the strip joint's and massage parlor's.
Thanx
I also heard that muslim's in Texas got wind of this...and some feel their quran or whatever should be in as well.
I want the Kojiki (Shinto holy book) in there too -- with all that shagging between gods and goddesses, including quite a bit of brother-sister incest, it should certainly capture the kids' imagination!
I wonder if there were any concern's over her panties?
Let's not even go there. I don't want to give these dingbats ideas.
Sound's good to me guy about the Shinto "word" ... cause the way I see it...is that if bro and sis are getting it on...that dont get any more "family value's" oriented. Hell, if you read the story of Adam and Eve...that there show's you that the whole familia was shaggin each other...or else we all wouldnt be here ...the Pope aint got shit on ole Ranch Chimp!
BTW...forgot to post it,but Iloved the Solar Tower piece!
