But that won't be how the comment ultimately plays out. People like Gel, who can't read, come up with their predictable reactions...and it just snowballs from there. It's also quite likely that Jerry is right and her basic contention isn't even correct to begin with. (luckily for her, it's impossible to prove one way or the other). Anyway......she's not running on a pro-slavery platform....but she probably wasn't wise for bringing it up. And she's certainly not wise for supporting the teaching of Creationism in a biology classroom :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:340103 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
