I would venture a guess

I did guess, then I looked it up, and I was correct, not only just a majority, but 72%, much larger than just a majority.

You went into immediate "Racism Police" mode but clearly do not understand that the one person has an AMEX Black Card. Well, I guess you had a job to do!

The world does need ditch diggers. You can be one of you want. Heck, I need someone to lay sod. Need work? The world doesn't need people to get good grades on the SAT because they know the definition of the phrase "fixin to".

You aren't going to get your idea if a low risk low reward least common denominator country in the USA. Try motivation, initiative, and hard work instead.

So, because someone has a black card that means he has insurance? How does that correlate? One is making judgements on perceived wealth and race. It is typical and classic racism. I have many, many personal stories of someone being treated like this but they were wealthy, successful professionals, but they just did not have the 'look' at that time and were not white. But I have done the exact same thing, sometimes at the exact same time and I'm a schmuck and am treated much better. At restaurants, stores, hospitals, etc. It's maddening.

I don't have the health to be a ditch digger and I admire those who do. My gardener works crazy hard and I don't know how he does it to be honest.

The SAT is not about getting 'good grades', it's about determining whether or not one has the aptitude to do well in college. Once again, every study has found that the best way to determine who will do best on the SAT is to look at their parents income, highest does the best. Also it has been determined that high scores do not correlate to good grades in college. So, something is wrong. Not dumbing down, truth. Just something you have to deal with. Continuing to repeat your assertion will not make it any more true.

I worked nights for part of that time frame, evenings for the part of it. First 2 years I stayed home to set the groundwork.

The curriculum I used presented both science and creationism, contrary to some opinions from what I have gathered science still must be taught for the school systems to credit the course.

There is data, that I have read, that also supported my statement on lack of faith in the local school system. It also addressed the moral instruction issue as well ie abstain from sex as opposed to free condoms for any child who asks for them, w/o parental notification in many school districts I might add. While many home schoolers do in fact do so for parochial reasons many others do not. Once again don't paint with a wide brush.

Well, there we go, creationism. You are complaining that I was wrong in saying that the majority of people who homeschool are doing it for religious reasons and you were teaching creationism. W T F.

The wide brush I painted with covers nearly 3/4 of the wall because those people self identified as having made the move for religious reasons. And I'm stereotyping?

Sometimes people on this board just fight me for no reason at all.

Your point is completely and utterly useless without the links to said research.

Based on past performance from you on these boards...98.2% of what you say is, well simply not true!

i graduated from red bank high in 1950. my early schooling unil the 6th grade was in queens NY, PS83.

we moved to tinton falls, NJ and i went to what was originally a one room school house but had been updated to several rooms for more grades up to the 8th grade, then went to red bank hi.

the culture shock from queens, ps 83 to a school where some of the kids rode horses to school, was cool.
i posted something about crop circles for general discussion and got the same **** from the same people
that i would get if i posted the truth that all this trouble in the country happened because of bush.

I am trying to present my personal case as well as others I know. Yes creation was part of the curriculum yet science was still required. You seem to overlook that point. Also because I chose a curriculum that presents both sides you somehow infer that I home schooled for religious reason. Wrong, I had little faith in the local school district where we lived at that time. That was the reason I home schooled.

The data you "offer" supports your belief, yet I am also one who feels that questions on surveys can be worded to obtain the results that are wanted. Lets assume your proffered data is accurate should we lump the minority in with the majority?


I am not trying to fight with anyone. Yet when someone wants to tell me why I did/do things, I will take exception.

Your personal case and those in your circle of friends does not equal scientifically collected hard data. Why is that so hard to understand? It's not like it's a push poll put out by Ed Schultz where you text in your answer for goodness sake. This whole "I don't trust polls because the result is not what I think it should be" bs is anti-science just as teaching creationism is and not understanding what scientific theory is.

I didn't tell you why you did something, but to say you didn't do it because of religious reasons, but you taught creationism, you are either delusional or lying through your teeth. Creationism is religious by nature, teaching it in a classroom setting is religious instruction and not science. Saying you did both does not mean you didn't do religious anti-science teaching.

I'm also not looking to fight, but holy crap man.

Sigh. Again, misrepresenting my point of view.

Of course they can coexist, just not in a science class. You're an engineer, but I'm betting you don't miscalculate something and say to a client or whoever the project is for 'Don't worry about it, I'm sure God will fix it".
