Emrich stringing words together will no basic understanding of the scientific method.
By that logic then, I would assume that they are ok with banning religion in all forms in schools as that is just a bunch of shit you can’t prove 100%.
“If we operate on the assumption that a theory is fact, unfortunately,
it leads us to asking questions that may be potentially based on false
assumptions,” Emrich said
Clearly he has no idea what the definition of scientific theory is, what it does, how it is arrived at and how science advances by the repeated examination of theories works. He could probably do with a good BA degree, if he could get into college that is.
The US should just let the ignorant eater states devolve into idiocy then kick them out of the union. In another generation they will be empty territories ready to be recolonized.
Counter Bill: Anyone who is against science, the teaching of science, the educating of people to think for themselves, and/or just any form of kindling logical thought, have to strip naked and go live in the wild as they are against the very foundations our modern society was built upon over the course of many generations of those striving to improve upon it with their minds and as such these people should not be able to enjoy the privileges and benefits of said civilization.

The stupid is especially strong with Kevin Hudson. “Protect the children” shouldn’t be license to make them equally and more stupid.

I’m really no longer surprised to see republicans striving to bring the US into the dark ages.

I recommend him climbing a tall ladder and testing out the “theory of gravity” and tell us what he thinks afterwards.

Maybe they should require a GED to hold public office in Montana?

we need to break the country up.
My federal tax dollars should not be used to bail out people that can’t be bothered to understand one single goddamn thing.
if the people in Montana want to live in mud huts and have tribes of sister wives why do I need to waste my tax money to try and stop them.

I’m just going to leave this here, the theory of gravity is still just theory. Guess we’ll all float away since we can’t teach this anymore.
