		<description>There cannot be religious education.

Only indoctrination. Believe by faith. Makes you dumb.

		<description>This guy is one of the smartest, non political judges I have seen in a long time. Why can&#039;t he be nominated for the supreme court? A few very interesting quotes from the article I think need to be pointed out.

“Jones, a churchgoing conservative jurist appointed to the federal bench by President Bush”

“Statements by the board members that they had only secular purposes in mind — to improve science teaching and foster open debate — were a &quot;sham&quot; and a &quot;pretext for the board&#039;s real purpose, which was to promote religion in the public school classroom,&quot; he wrote.”

&quot;Those who disagree with our holding will likely mark it as the product of an activist judge,&quot; he wrote. &quot;If so they have erred as this is manifestly not an activist court.&quot; 

and most importantly

“Intelligent-design arguments &quot;may be true, a proposition on which this court takes no position,&quot; he wrote, but it &quot;is not science.&quot;
&quot;The centuries-old ground rules of science&quot; make clear that a scientific theory must rely solely on natural explanations that can be tested, he wrote.”

There is nothing wrong with having a theology course in todays schools, religion is such an influental force in todays society that to completely ban it from schools does nothing to help kids. However, religion should NOT be taught in science class. Its not science!</description>

		<description>&quot;US president George W. Bush apparently likes the idea of Creationism&quot;


Bush does not necessarily like the idea. Its the votes tha come with the idea! Ideas are too abstract for a pea sized brain.

He also wants to create a democracy in Iraq, but not in the country of his pals, saudi Arabia.

His administration also wants to create downloading thiefs.

He also wants to create terrorists where there are none. Remeber the switching of arguments with alleged terrorist Padilla.

He also wants to create enemies (Castro) in exhange of the Florida Cuaban vote.

He also wants to create  a new country in Afghanistan, populated by American (soldiers).

He also wants to create of people that dissent from his views of the world.

Iam tires, so I will stop here.</description>

		<description>At last, an honest judge (or the Internet got to him).

We now know that any judicial decision will be forever in the Internet, where fools look like fools and the corrupt look like the corrupt.
