Garrett backs lessons on intelligent design

[ramapo]

He really should move to Kansas...

From today's Record.

"Rep. Scott Garrett is calling on school boards throughout New Jersey to include lessons on intelligent design alongside evolution, on the heels of a Pennsylvania court case on the issue."

""Evolution is the predominant theory right now," said Garrett, R-Wantage. " intelligent design is one that is apparently growing in some scientific communities, in academia. ... It seems that a school board should at least consider being tolerant and open to discussing both theories.""

"Beyond expressing his views, the congressman said he would not advocate for a law mandating changes..."

Teach Science, Not Ideology

Stop the religious right's attack on science. Tell your governor that intelligent design is nothing more than creationism dressed up as pseudo-science. We owe it to our children to teach knowledge, not ideology.

2. They like to say "Some scientific communities"

and other vague statements to justify themselves. They never say just WHO these so called scientific communities or what their findings are based on. You see FAUX do this all the time (“Some people say”).

4. You see FAUX do this all the time

Old Nixon tactic. He's say things along the lines of "now, others may say my opponent is a Communist lesbian. I would never make such a charge myself."

3. Remember that Scott Garrett

...was also one of the shameful few Repugnantcan congresscritters to vote against Hurricane Aid.
