School Not Allowing a Woman Official

[bellnier]

Sheesh...this is what they teach these kids? That a woman can't be an authority figure? theri mothers must love that concept. What about an adult having authority over a child? Doesn't that trump the gender issue?

This is Kansas, though, the land of Creationism as public policy.

There is a certain officials association here in IL. I will not list them. Rumor has it they will not let in any members who are of african american decent. This is a very eleite organization.

The joke is they are the "white coats"

Its not funny what they do though. If true... Its just sad.

Let me say the I feel all African Americans are decent.

If you're referring the the association that wears white jackets you're mistaken.

Like I said... its a rumor. I hence why I'm not pointing out who, but I've heard of a few situations now that were..... disturbing. I will also say that these situations happened a while ago so...

As I said.. rumor, but if true.. very disappointing.

I got news for everybody. All Americans, of all colors, are African Americans. In fact every Homo Sapien on Earth is of African descent. The oldest human fossils on Earth come from what is now known as the rift region of eastern Africa, centered around what is now known as Kenya.

Even more astonding, every single human on Earth has descended from one female, that lived around 150-250 thousand years ago. Unlike the regular DNA in our body cells that comes from both of our parents, mitochondrial DNA only comes from the mother. By studing mitochondrial DNA, scientists have determined that all humans have decended from a one female that lived in what is now Africa hundreds of thousands of years ago.

I never said that. Fossils of prehistoric humans usually consist of fossilized hard material, teeth, bones, etc., not softer tissue like muscle, internal organs, or skin.

However, some scientists believe that humans that live in equatorial areas, now, or in prehistory, that get a lot of sunlight, evolve darker skin pigments to decrease the chance of getting skin cancer. As humans migrated out of Africa, into northern climates, that received lesser amounts of sunlight, they may have evolved lighter skin coloration, to best absorb sunlight, as a way of providing the body with Vitamin D, which is produced by the skin when the skin is exposed to sunlight.

Lah me.... I will go back and put a smiley on my post.

Do you EVER know a non-serious post when you see it?

Edit: went back to look and there was already an icon. And you didn't quote it! Talk about putting words into someone's mouth. How about you not taking words away!

As I suspected, your statement is a gross over-simplification of a very rudimentary summary of a quite complicated theory that is just beginning to be posited. Not the sort of thing that should be quoted as established fact.

Technically speaking if you want to be consistent then both of you are expressing opinion. NOT FACT.

I mean after all you cant have it both ways.
