Unfortunately, anti-Darwinism keeps playing minor variations on the same negative themes and adds nothing to our understanding of life.

It is long overdue for parents to realize they have the right and duty to protect our children against the intolerant evolutionists.

The brutal truth is, we're scarcely 'educating' children at all. Even if you overlook the guilt, fear, bigotry, and dangerous anti-intellectual flapdoodle being funneled into young brains by schools on the religious right, what we're doing is training kids to be cogs in the wheels of commerce.

We are really battling, today in the U.S., keeping science education in the forefront at the elementary level, and that's where the research shows that kids get interested.

Darwin's idea of natural selection makes people uncomfortable because it reverses the direction of tradition.

It's important that our children are raised to be educated, well-rounded tax-paying citizens that understand the importance of technology and science.

If you were to actually travel around schools and universities and listen in on lectures about evolution, you might find a fairly substantial fraction of young people, without knowing what it is they disapprove of, think they disapprove of it, because they've been brought up to.

America's got a Darwin problem - and it matters. According to a 2009 Gallup poll taken on the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth, fewer than 40% of Americans are willing to say that they 'believe in evolution.'

We're raising a generation of kids who are being overly praised for incredibly minor accomplishments. I think it's counter-productive.

I'm convinced that promoting sport is an intelligent way of educating our children.
