  • "What a backassward place America has become. More than half the people think the world is 10,000 years old and that dinosaurs roamed the Earth with the first humans. The other half can’t find their own country on a map or their own ass with a flashlight for that matter."

    Ignorant bigot much?

    Most of the stuff in that article was a fat load of crap.
    Anyone who can't see how one-sided, biased, and ridiculous that "reporting" was needs to wash out their gray matter.
    Yes, what happened to that teacher was retarded, and those particular Floridians are ignorant twats, but that is one town in the entire US of A.
    If somebody equated that daughter-f*cking Austrian sicko to the entire nation of Austria, they'd be kicked in the nuts, and rightly so.
    The author of that article just used the incident to push their extremist propaganda, instead of reporting it from a non-biased standpoint.
    Don't encourage this kind of crap.
    It's insulting in more ways than one.

  • No, it's true to a extent.

    Americans are vastly ignorant and arrogant. The article was silly and its commentary was terrible, but it is true that half the people in this country don't believe in evolution or many other basic things.

    It's a huge problem, many Americans have become anti-rational and anti-education.

  • Well so much for the premise of the movie Expelled, the opposite seems more true.

  • I do agree that half the people here are avid idiots...I just get pissed off when people apply that sentiment to the other 150 million of us is all.

    But that half is definitely a huge problem, particularly the whole ridiculous aversion to logic and science (ugh).
    Encouraged ignorance.

  • Humdrum, et al,

    I think we're mostly in agreement.

    I didn't mean to imply this literally applies to everyone in the country or in the world for that matter. The point was that this sort of thing happens more and more and that this type of case isn't isolated to Florida. I frequently run across similar items in other places.

    I appreciate the comments. Keep them coming.
