You have not fully expressed your power as a voter until you have scientific literacy in topics that matter for future political issues.

We think scientific literacy flows out of how many science facts can you recite rather than how was your brain wired for thinking. And it's the brain wiring that I'm more interested in rather than the facts that come out of the curriculum or the lesson plan that's been proposed.

I would like to never ever think about any political issues.

Riots born out of political issues aren't the same as those born out of personal greed.

A public role endures for the literary high-command, as sages and seers, speaking out on social and political issues.

People cited violation of the First Amendment when a New Jersey schoolteacher asserted that evolution and the Big Bang are not scientific and that Noah's ark carried dinosaurs. This case is not about the need to separate church and state; it's about the need to separate ignorant, scientifically illiterate people from the ranks of teachers.
