In US community colleges are probably what you mean by regular college, 2 year deal to prep you up for the big university or to go into an occupational study like nursing. Then there's things like Brown College and DeVry which are just pyramid schemes. The only university in Canada I can think of off the top of my head is University of Toronto. I don't really know much about Canada I guess. SEX ED GUYS. I HAVE HAD VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE WITH MY SEX LEARNINGS. MAYBE EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE IT LIKE ME! |

Inner city is where the best sex ed is, you get to do it all hands-on and with live examples and everything. You can see everything as the teacher talks. |

I've always been too afraid to drive into Detroit proper. Maybe I should if the sex-ed is as good as you say it is. |

Except that has nothing to do with either. If we're gonna head on back to that I'll take the same stance here as I took there: school is there to teach you how to think, not what you think. If these kids can't figure out whether it's the stork or sex without the teacher forcefeeding one or the other (or both), there's a problem. You teach them the facts and you teach them how to make a responsible decision, much like Sex Ed. That said I hate both sides not because they're specifically trying to push intelligent design or the big bang, but because the deny children the opportunity to understand why something is wrong - or right - and instead just want to say "This is right" Edited by 房/-\沃, Mar 28 2009, 09:39 PM.

What the hell does evolution have to do with intelligent design? |

I think it's the way proponents of intelligent design are teaching the kids that is the problem. Most who teach creationism as a science teach kids not to trust blasphemous scientists and dismiss evolution as a theory made up by essentially a scientific cult. I don't think an "evolutionist" has ever used such a threatening method of teaching. Telling kids to dismiss science will lessen the trust that kids have for our scientific findings and research; I don't think that's really a good thing. And then there's creationists who threaten that god will not see you as a worthy person if you believe evolution. I mean... the grown-up is talking, threatening you. As a kid in elementary school where you learn the world of knowledge entirely through adults, are you going to be thinking for yourself when an adult is threatening hell?
Certainly this would apply to moral issues that have no definite right or wrong, such as sexual abstinence, and drugs. There's a right and wrong to the history of the earth though. Sometimes there will be debating theories but we should teach theories that have been scientifically researched on and teach the facts of those theories, and say why we don't know the validity of either one. I suppose we could do the same thing with creation vs. evolution but there's a hell of a lot more evidence towards evolution and as far as I know no valid scientific progression towards creation or intelligent design. That's why we don't teach alchemy and astrology in school anymore. But OK, sex. The debate of Abstinence is different than the debate of Evolution because again, we will never be able to set a right or wrong on either side. That's the kind of thing we should just teach the facts and let kids learn for themselves. Evolution isn't a moral debate though, it's a debate of fact. |

No seriously what the hell is with this evolution vs. intelligent design. We're talking about the creation of the universe here, are we not? It's big bang vs. intelligent design. You are right though in your first paragraph, and it's terrible that that happens. My hope is that someday the idea will be discussed in a secular fashion. Kids will learn both and be able to figure out which is right. I'm just really averse to the teaching style of "this is right and this is why it's right". I prefer "here's how this works, here's how this works, what do you think is right and why?" It applies to things with definite answers too, man. Kids should learn how to reach good conclusions and be naturally able to reach that conclusion. I mentioned this in the other topic, my school taught us both Lamarck and Darwin unbiasedly at first, and then we were asked to, get this, think about why Lamarck was wrong and why Darwin was right with the information we were given. And even on tests, the questions were worded like "How does Darwinian evolution explain the change of species over time?" rather than "How do species change over time?" That's because even if a kid, for some reason, thinks Lamarck was right, they'd still be able to answer the question correctly because they know Darwin's theory too. It's just a matter of knowledge. Studying communism can still be an enriching experience, even if you know it's a flawed idea. Studying ancient building techniques can be good too, even though you know modern ones are superior. As is studying the English language, even though it's filled with vast amounts of retardation in comparison to others. Edited by 房/-\沃, Mar 29 2009, 02:46 AM.

You need to tell me something Tal. Are you just trying to sound smart or are you trying to get at something? I remember last topic you said "We should study both conflicting theories as being potentially valid and let kids choose for themselves", not "We should learn about the arguments of both theories, study why people think some things and show why one theory has essentially been disproven". So what are your thoughts on Intelligent Design? Evolution? Edited by MARBLES, Mar 29 2009, 04:33 AM.

I'm trying to get at something. Am I being unclear? Sorry about that. Let me say this as clear as possible: Present both the big bang and intelligent design as valid theories initally. Teach the aspects of both. Ask the kids which one they think is right and why. Also ask why the other one is wrong. If you've been teaching these kids how to think, they should be able to come to their own conclusion and back it up. I consider that better than what I sometimes see going on, which is: Present one theory Teach why that theory is right Ask kids why that theory is right We could get into my thoughts, but those are irrelevant. This is about teaching. I don't understand what you're getting at in your second paragraph. |

Of course, when it's time for a change the school system has to gratingly switch from one brainwashing to another. From the fucking japs from the fucking negroes to the awesome negroes to the friendly japs to the fucking ruskies to the fucking sandniggers to the pretty-cool-i-guess ruskies.

Oh lawd

I had to carry around this ridiculous plastic baby that cried every once in a while and you had to give it attention or the computer inside would know you were neglecting it, and you had to be real gentle and carry it around right or it would know you were abusing it, and all this other crap. Fortunately, the baby can be killed, which makes it shut up, if it is dropped hard enough. One of the kids in my class simply dropped it as soon as he got it and took a 0 for the assignment. After a weekend of having to lug that fucker around with me I came away with two realizations: 1: The kid who dropped his baby was actually really smart, and 2: I never want babies. Seriously, having to have this thing for one whole weekend will be enough to turn you into a monk (Or a nun). Edited by Iron Angel, Apr 11 2009, 02:16 PM.
