Follow Up: Public Education = Humanist Indoctrination

I wrote my last post at 10:00am this morning. It is now 9:45pm and came across this article which reports exactly what I am talking about. While my focus is on the humanist world view and the article I linked to is about leftist ideology; they are pretty much one in the same.

The point being that these so-called "free thinking progressives" are some of the most closed minded people ever. Just recently the Texas Board of Education made a decision requiring examination of "all sides of scientific evidence" in new science standards, but rejected language requiring teachers to teach the "strengths and weaknesses" of scientific theories. The science in question was evolution. WHAT!? Teaching that there are weaknesses in the theory of evolution!? Pro-evolutionists wouldn't hear of it. Why? On the surface it's because they reject any notion that they might be wrong. Deep down it's because they are insecure, academic snobs. They refuse to recognize anything or anybody who tries to present alternative theories.
