Red states pushing their backward / inward looking narrative in schools vs blue states pushing theirs. Ain't gonna end well is it.

The thought of evangelical christians gaining even more power over there terrifies me more than anything.

Young Earth creation, no evolution, anti-LGBT etc? Yep, back to the stone age.

What I can never quite work out is whether those people actually believe that sort of absolutely moronic drivel, or whether they just push it as a way to control others. I find the first hard to believe, but then I know one or two fundamentalist Catholics as well! Barking.

People suspending logic and reason in order to follow and/or push a manipulative ideology is fundamentally what is going to doom the human race to essentially wiping itself out in our poor little fckued up ecosphere.

Well I suppose as he does not like war elsewhere a little internal reduction of the population won't hurt. I mean they all got guns to protect themselves from this very thing happening.

How long before they go back to segregation?

For a lot of them that's the aim though isn't it? The End Times, or whatever you want to call it.

Sorry to thick but how will this (if it happens) see ‘Red states’ trying to impose their will over the more liberal states?

According to the article, ’unlike the UK's Department for Education, for example, its US counterpart takes no part in laying out national curricula, which it leaves to the states. It contributes only a small fraction of funding for student spending when compared to state-level counterparts’.

So education policy will be left on the hands of the states be it red or blue.

A lot of anecdotal (and first hand) experience indicate that education in the US is already pretty poor, so arguably the Department of Education has not been doing a very good job!

It has very little input into the curriculum, teaching methods or working out whether individual schools are good or bad. There's no American Ofsted, or anything like our DfE.

It's mostly at state or individual school district level.

Certainly the levels of critical thinking and analysis seems very low

Mind you, we are not too great at spotting a grifting charlatan when one pops up in our midst

I can't remember many salient points from that documentary, but a couple of things did stand out. Oh, and a third.

Is this a Gervais/Pilkington reference?

Raquel Welch at her historically accurate best.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

I've seen that documentary too. I'd have been happy to take on a TRex if it meant I'd get to bang Raquel Welch.

Perfect point for one of my favourites. The time gap between a Stegosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus Rex is longer than the time gap between a Tyrannosaurus Rex and an iPad.
