St. Petersburg Schoolgirl Sues Over Darwinist Propaganda - Evolution Is Crumbling All Over The World |
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/1587796/posts
St. Petersburg schoolgirl sues authorities over Darwinism
ST. PETERSBURG, March 1 (RIA Novosti, Maksim Leonov) - A St. Petersburg
schoolgirl intends to go to court over the compulsory teaching of the
theory of evolution at Russian schools.
Maria Shraiber's father, Kirill Shraiber, who is also her lawyer, told
a news conference in St. Petersburg that the suit did not seek to
abolish the teaching of Darwinism in schools but to give schoolchildren
the right to study other theories about the origins of life.
"Darwin only presented a hypothesis that has not yet been proved by him
or anyone else," Shraiber said. "Hence, we think that school education
imposes this theory on children as the only scientific option, which
violates the human right to free choice."
Shraiber said the lawsuit against the Education and Science Ministry
would be filed soon at a district court in Moscow.
"We will be represented in court by several lawyers ... who are now
drafting the suit," he said.
The Russian lawsuit echoes a string of similar disputes in the United
States over teaching creationism alongside Darwinism in the school
curriculum.

No one said you can't teach alternate theories but they have to be theories
not religion.

I see willful pig ignorance is considered a Constitutional right now...

"Darwinism" doesn't deal with the origins of life, moron. Evolution
describes how life developed once it was already here.

Perhaps the USA can recapture some of its former glory by exporting

Schoolchildren have the right to study other ideas about the origins of
life. However, the teachers should only be teaching reality (evolution).
"Darwin only presented a hypothesis that has not yet been proved by him
or anyone else,"
Define "proved". It's impossible to prove anything for certain other than
that you perceive certain things through your senses and your own
existance. Evolution certainly has more evidence going for it than
Creationism/Intelligent Design.
Shraiber said. "Hence, we think that school education
imposes this theory on children as the only scientific option, which

The human right to be wrong. (Don't mistake my meaning here, I'm fully
serious. People *do* have the right to believe idiotic things, including
creationism and a flat earth. Doesn't give them the right to teach it to
innocent children.)
Shraiber said the lawsuit against the Education and Science Ministry
would be filed soon at a district court in Moscow.
"We will be represented in court by several lawyers ... who are now
drafting the suit," he said.

fundie brat babbled:
"Darwin only presented a hypothesis that has not yet been proved by him
or anyone else," Shraiber said.
Which alone should be enough to earn her a clear "F" and a "class failed",
for complete ignorance about the basics of science.
Aside from that, we see that the braindead cretinists, as usual, babble
nothing but their long-debunked lies, which proves two things:
1. the fundie cults' doctrine is ludicrously weak, or else it wouldn't have
to be promoted with lies
2. the fundies have no faith in their doctrine of *****, or else they
wouldn't so desperately need to eradicate each and any opposition... motto
"if there's no one left challenging my idiocy then I can feel safe being an
idiot".

"To his friend a man a friend shall prove, and gifts with gifts requite;
But men shall mocking with mockery answer, and fraud with falsehood meet."
(The Poetic Edda)
Must have been written with fundies in mind...
