Evolution to be taught in primary school.
by Caedes inabout time.. http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2009/nov/08/evolution-primary-school-curriculum-education.
.
the schools minister, diana johnson, has confirmed the plans will be included in a blueprint for a new curriculum to be published in the next few weeks.. it follows a letter signed by scientists and science educators calling on the government to make the change after draft versions of the new curriculum failed to mention evolution explicitly.. if only i had been taught evolution at primary school it might have helped me to realise exactly how much rubbish my parents were spouting.. i would love to know how 'faith' schools are going to get round this?.

No perfect healthcare system
by Caedes inwhen people propose the government should boost national spending on health, by incentivising individuals to make provision for their own healthcare needs, they normally mean tax incentives for individuals and/or employers for making contributions towards private medical insurance.. the efficiency testthe efficiency test3.6 this approach is inefficient in five respects:.

Catholic church leaders knew about abuse
by Caedes inhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8059826.stm.
an inquiry into child abuse at catholic institutions in ireland has found church leaders knew that sexual abuse was "endemic" in boys' institutions.. it also found physical and emotional abuse and neglect were features of institutions.. schools were run "in a severe, regimented manner that imposed unreasonable and oppressive discipline on children and even on staff".. and yet the real problem, the thing that is going to destroy western civilisation is atheism and subjective morality.
