Teach Your Children Well (keep them out of red states)

.

At what point does the madness end?

A resolution from the legislators of South Dakota…

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the House of Representatives of the Eighty-fifth Legislature of the State of South Dakota, the Senate concurring therein, that the South Dakota Legislature urges that instruction in the public schools relating to global warming include the following:

(1) That global warming is a scientific theory rather than a proven fact;
(2) That there are a variety of climatological, meteorological, astrological, thermological, cosmological, and ecological dynamics that can effect [sic] world weather phenomena and that the significance and interrelativity of these factors is largely speculative; and
(3) That the debate on global warming has subsumed political and philosophical viewpoints which have complicated and prejudiced the scientific investigation of global warming phenomena; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Legislature urges that all instruction on the theory of global warming be appropriate to the age and academic development of the student and to the prevailing classroom circumstances.

Astrological? Can there be any doubt that insanity has gripped republicans and conservatives with a force unseen before?

This blogger has got it right.

The senate of SD did pass a bill removing most of the crap above, but still left in the part about how global warming isn’t real because it is just a theory…like the theory of gravity, of the theory of relativity…you know just theories. One could only hope that they abandon all reason, and go out daily to test the “theory” of gravity by throwing themselves off high places.

In all honesty, if this is the best our leaders can muster, we have very little hope of making it as a species…I suggest you all start doing things on your own and/or get new leaders.
