Rick Perry's Courageous Stand for Alternativity

While the secular evolutionists in Texas are probably still celebrating with Shiner Bock and tofu barbecue over their recent textbookical victory over the science curriculum, Governor, Presidential candidate, and possible pod-person Rick Perry has taken a courageous stand for alternative thinking in his state's science classrooms.

"In Texas," said the Governor, "we teach both creationism and evolution."

It's true! See for yourself on this minaturized talking-box:

As you might expect, the liberal-evolutionist conspirators are literally tripping over their fair-trade pocket-protectors rushing to discredit the future President/Manthourian pod-clone, claiming that his stance is somehow "unconstitutionalThe United States Constitution" just because it "violates" the so-called "First Amendment.

Of course, we alternativists know that creationism and Intelligent Design do nothing of the sort. They merely provide a thoroughly unsupported alternative theory as an alternative to the scientific hegemony/fact-based conspiracy that is the Theory of Evolution.

Stay strong, Governor Perry - don't let them make you backtrack from your ideals.

P.S. While I've got you on the line, would you mind showing us all your birth certificate? We just need to make sure you're human and not a pod-clone from Tau Ceti. No rush - we've got plenty of time until the nomination.

Freedom Dealt a Texas-Sized Blow in Texas

The in-aptly named Texas Freedom Network is rejoicing over the news that the Texas education commissioner failed to include any anti-science materials on a list of science materials recommended for adoption by the Board of Education. Despite a valiant effort by New Mexico-based International Databases to have their pro-freedom/anti-evolution materials included as supplemental science materials in the Texas curriculum, the scientifico-numeric cabal amassed all their cronies and co-conspirators and waged an all-out war on the tiny publisher, handing the poor databasers a tragic defeat.

In a self-congratulatory bit of bloggery, the Texas "Freedom" Networkiacs made no effort to hide their anti-freedom agenda:

Of course, science is determined by research and evidence, not "freedom of choice." "Intelligent design"/creationism isn't supported by a shred of scientific evidence. So it's very good news that the review teams and education commissioner have rejected International Databases' materials.

Oh yeah? Well science may not be a democracy, but democracy IS a democracy! And in a democracy, the majority rules! It doesn't matter one whit that the majority in this case is a thinly-veiled wedge strategy designed to surreptitiously insert unconstitutional religious instruction into the public-school curriculum - it's still the majority!

If Intelligent Design isn't valid science, why are people still arguing that it is valid science? If people are still debating, the debate isn't over, no matter how much the scientifical-arithmetical conspiracy wants to say it is.

Someone should tell the Texas "Freedom" Network that true freedom also means freedom from facts.
