We've been attacked by the intelligent, educated segment of the culture.

oh brother, why isn't the board of education worrying about whether or not the teachers are paid enough, or is there enough text books for the schools much less arguing about which text book is more appropriate for school? if these kids are going to church in this "religious" town, then they are getting an education from the opposite side of the coin -- creation by God, IN church. i wonder just HOW many of those students & parents go to church....keep religion out of public schools! there are TOO many differences of opinion when it comes to religion. if the parents want their kids taught from the christian point of view THEN send them to a christian school...so says THIS teacher!
