What your child's science teacher believes

This is from last year--as the school year approaches, I like to lay things out, re-evaluate them, tweak as need be.



I may be teaching your child soon--here are some of the things I believe:

General Jack D. Ripper had a point, fluoridating public water is a bad idea.

Not all vaccines mandatory for public school in NJ should be mandatory, and that using a healthy abortus for a common vaccine may be ethically dubious.

Tithonus and the rubella vaccine

Drinking from a public water fountain is safe and a good idea, and charter schools are neither.

Public water and charter schools

However, drinking water held in bottles made with an estrogen-like agent is dangerously stupid.

Sylvester McMonkey McBean and the FDA

Our Federal Secretary of Education is under-qualified.

I really don't like Arne

I have a bit of a religious streak, inconsistent as it may be.

Eating in a science class

But I have little tolerance for those who dismiss descent with modification with little (or no) thought. Evolution is the heart of biology.
