False. Moses wasn't born during the time of the first ark, and dinosaurs wouldn't fit in the second.No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.Comment

Second, logic such as size of animals versus size of the ark do not apply in science classes.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.Comment

Don't be an idiot. That's history, not biology. Texas history education, like history education in the rest of the country, begins at the year 1492, when the first important event in world history happened.Originally posted by MrFun View PostComment

Wow! Jews had cars in 1492?!?“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

So why don't elementary and high school teachers teach students English grammar and writing anymore?

I guess for the same reason that history teachers teach anything other than Lincoln was a master politician.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Good question. The ones I have aren't stupid, but too many are below grade level in reading when I get them. I could spend half my class on just that.So why don't elementary and high school teachers teach students English grammar and writing anymore?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Well to be honest, I am exaggerating.
Only about three of my twenty-two students are truly bad in their English writing and grammar. Most of the others are mediocre, and then the few remaining ones are excellent in their writing and grammar.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.Comment
