creationism is a christian belief. if people would like their children to learn creationism, enroll them in a private school. why should non-christian children be compelled to learn what evangelical christian politicians want them to?
Gravity is also a theory. The idea that the Earth moves around the Sun is a theory. We're still pretty sure that these things are true, but that's as best as empirical thought will allow.

Creationism has been disproven beyond a shadow of a doubt, in scientific circles, and as for evolution, it is the basis of modern genetics. Modern genetics does not work, does not function when you do not look at it from a non evolutionary viewpoint.
Without Al Gore's very popular political message AND his high profile role as vice president of the United States, I'm sure that you can agree that he would never have been a best-selling author, an academy award winner, or a nobel peace prize winner (in that particular order). He is where he is because the world finds it gratifying for an ex-vice president AND major presidential candidate of the United States to criticize the US so utterly and so publicly during the hugely unpopular global conflicts that we started.
Heh. I guess SOMEONE has to speak for Jesus, since he isn't speaking for himself... and there's no evidence that he ever did. I'll speak for Zeus and Odin -- both of them "kings" among gods. Now THAT is presumptuous.
Maybe it would have. A woman AND an African-American at the same time! But then again, if that were his thinking, he might have been better off choosing Condoleeza Rice.
this is the stuff she has said?! What an idiot! No wonder everyone hates her guts!

No one ever said that man comes from apes. Evolutionary theory maintains that apes and man have a common ancestor. There's a difference.
She's crazy. Hot, but crazy.
