Matt Singleton is a Baptist minister in Louisville who also runs an Internet talk-radio program. A staunch supporter of the nearby Ark Park, Singleton is a fierce critic of evolution, calling teachings on evolution a lie that have led to drug abuse, suicide and other social afflictions. His criticisms have, not the least, been directed at Kentucky’s academic standards for public schools, which, as they should, include evolution: “Outsiders are telling public school families that we must follow the rich man’s elitist religion [no less!] of evolution, that we no longer have what the Kentucky constitution says is the right to worship almighty God,” Singleton said. “Instead, this fascist method teaches that our children are the property of the state” – relatively silly though possibly effective rhetorical gambit showing that someone is completely out of touch with anything resembling reality, of course.
Singleton made the comments when the Kentucky science standards were up for review in 2013. He was not the only one. Parent Valerie O’Rear, for instance, said the standards promoted an “atheistic world view” and a political agenda that pushes government control. Dena Stewart-Gore, meanwhile, suggested that the standards would marginalize students with religious beliefs, leading to ridicule and physiological harm in the classroom, and create difficulties for students with learning disabilities: “The way socialism works is it takes anybody that doesn’t fit the mold and discards them,” she said, adding that “we are even talking genocide and murder here, folks.” This would be an unusual definition of “socialism” outside of America.
Diagnosis: No, there is probably nothing you can do. It’s hopeless.
You know I am not contacted when they right these things. they just regurgitate one article and even when they put it on the huffington post, they gave me one email and I never check my email if I had tv equipment I could be on the show which aired 45minutes after the email. At the time I was at work and found the email 1 week later, and NO! they never returned my calls.
ReplyDeleteWell, how about some real research for those of you who still believe you are allowed to think for yourselves.

Is it lunacy that I said they were trying to tell us who we can worship?
Well gee, what do you call it when the ky Governor shut down a church on easter and put nails down in their parking lot? Was he so concerned for safety at the same time that he was allowing abortions? Is it ok to ban people from singing even with masks on?? Or not allow people over for thanksgiving and banning gatherings of ten people when their are family homes still composed of ten people???
Yeah real looney to think that the left would take over the country right????
