		<description>Kassem: I love your writing style. I wish I could be as snappy and efficient a communicator. Since I am not, here is my loooong comment:

I landed on this page from Google while doing a search for academic purposes, as it happened to be amongst the first results for &quot;in the morrow&quot;, and I was absolutely compelled to visit after reading &quot;Tired of shoving twenty dollar bills up your asshole? Don&#039;t worry, here&#039;s something else you can do with money....&quot;. 

I am not tired of doing that, but still could not resist reading what your proposal for an alternative was, and let me tell you: I was not disappointed. 

Writing from Spain, I doubt that I will be around Kentucky soon but, if I ever am, I will make sure not to visit that museum.

Further: I love the US. You guys are far better than the most critic and intelligent amongst yourselves seem to believe, because when criticising your country (which in itself is a good and patriotic thing to do) you sometimes forget that the other countries you look upon have other defects that are at least as bad. Compared to you guys, we Europeans are petty, culturally arrogant, chauvinistic, etc. (and in places like Spain, Portugal, Italy and so on, our politics and much of our society are endemically corrupt and dishonest)

BUT

discussing creationism (by any of its names) as something other than a pretty or non-pretty story and a quaint part of our cultural heritage, and further, comparing it with evolutionary theories as if they were at the same level, really puts you in a different league from the rest of the &quot;developed world&quot;.

Yes, people do have a right to believe whatever they want to; in fact, there is no way to stop them from doing so, but teaching a moronic belief to children in a public (or private, for that matter) school or university is a completely different issue. It should be made a crime, as it is easy to prove that it amounts to lying to them, handicapping their minds and their capability to understand the world around them, and wasting public money.

In my country, at least, even the Catholic Church openly says that the content of the Bible should not be read as a literal truth but as an inspiration, and always bearing in mind who wrote it and when (I would add, &quot;and for what purpose&quot;, but that is not something they say).

Best regards and thanks for your hilarious comments.</description>
