Comments on: Interview on the radio tonight http://www.flascience.org/wp/?p=915 Defending and promoting sound science in Florida Mon, 20 May 2013 17:38:54 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: MaryB http://www.flascience.org/wp/?p=915#comment-93364 MaryB Tue, 24 Feb 2009 23:37:40 +0000 http://www.flascience.org/wp/?p=915#comment-93364 I am encouraged both by the excellent response of our side and by the friendly tone of the broadcast. Did you notice that the interviewer ends with a statement about Wise and crew "imposing their religious views" on Florida school children. This is excellent framing for our side! Congrats to Brandon for his eloquence and his ability to win over the press. I am encouraged both by the excellent response of our side and by the friendly tone of the broadcast.

Reminds me of Rep Hayes' comment last year about "nobody never seen no half monkey/half insect" on the floor of the Fl Hall of Representatives!!!?!!?!. Clearly, those pushing this crap (at best) were products of the educational standards prior to the new, improved version under attack, and so have no understanding of the very thing they are fighting so hard against. A clarion call to champion further and not let them damage any other young minds with their strawman arguments that they think are so telling. LOL! OBTW: I'd guess that Sen. Wise and Rep Hayes are of European descent. Why are there still Europeans? RE: “…Why still apes?” comment.

You laughing at Wise's stupid remark was the icing on the cake. I wonder why the radio station only had one member of the ID camp to interview? Perhaps Rhonda Storms was to busy bashing the gay community!! Great job Brandon,I listened to the program on the way home.

I don't think I was taught properly about the whole common ancestor thing. I imagine a lot of people ask the same question. I was asking that same question just a few years ago.
