The Simpsons Chime In On Intelligent Design

This weeks quote of the week goes to Lisa Simpson. This weeks episode of The Simpsons was about the controversy over public school districts teaching intelligent design. Lisa ended the show by saying to her neighbor, Mr. Flanders (I'm paraphrasing) "Mr. Flanders, I respect your religion, but we should not be forced to learn religion in public schools and in the same manner you should not have to be forced to teach science in your church".

This is been my opinion on this issue. Our country's founding fathers specifically called for separation of church and state when they formed America. I believe everyone should have the right to practice their religion, but not in public schools.
