Evolving in Monkey Town and your Local Science

Postby Stephen Fox » Sat Feb 05, 2011 11:02 am

Is your district one of the One in Eight;

If so ask your local public library and your high school library to get a copy of Rachel Held Evans Evolving in Monkey Town. Ask the local Historical Societies, the Women's Literary groups to have pulbic discussions or a group read. See if what passes for the literati in your local community will have group reading of Marilynne Robinson. Try to translate the terms and keep the peace while advancing the cause.

Be evangelistic, A Witness

Mohlerism intimidates. Robinson of Absence of Mind should be remedial instruction for the 25 percent of Science teachers who teach less than science.

Sfox on NPR in Re Dayton and other matters

Postby Stephen Fox » Thu Jun 16, 2011 1:45 pm

While Gene Scarborough was researching his family History in Pickens County, S.C. and Dr. Thorton was thinking of new blogs to attact Jerry Vines comment; and Flick was waitin on Effie to get the cornbread out of the skillet this morning, I was on National Public Radio this morning about the 27th minutes of the Diane Rehm show with an illustrious comment in regard the fascinating career of Clarence Darrow, his father's simlilarities to the father of Hugo Black and a local Baptist church.

Some of you may want to listen in. Hope you can get your hands on Mr. Farrell's new bio this summer
