I remember hearing that Tony Campolo said "do you know a (uses swear word) lot of people are going to hell and we don't care about it. And now you are more concerned that I swore than that the said people are going to hell". I thought it was quite an interesting article, theology withstanding.

Georgia School Board Bans 'Theory Of Math'
COGDELL, GA—The Cogdell School Board banned the teaching of the controversial "Theory Of Math" in its schools Monday. "We are simply not confident of this mysterious process by which numbers turn, as if by magic, into other numbers," board member Gus Reese said. "Those mathematicians are free to believe 3 times 4 equals 12, but that dun [sic] give them the right to force it on our children." Under the new ruling, all math textbooks will carry a disclaimer noting that math is only one of many valid theories of number-manipulation.

OOOOOOOKKKK. Does that mean all the accountants in my family, who use math every day, are just buying into some screwball theory and not something that has been taught as fundamental since the founding of civilization? Gimme a break. These people in Georgia must not want the kids to learn very much. What are they going to ban next? Foreign language because they can't stand the fact that not everyone speaks English?

i agree! ;) :D
