1 In 4 Americans Thinks The Sun Goes Around The Earth, Survey Says

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

If this isn't an indictment of our government schools I don't know what is.

You don't even want to know what they think causes the phases of the moon.

Medication?

Seriously. . . .

Even college students, a lot of them, will tell you, it is the "Earth's shadow."

Pretty pathetic.

It's not?

It would be nice if I could tell you this was a joke, but sadly it appears to be true.

A quarter of Americans surveyed could not correctly answer that the Earth revolves around the sun and not the other way around, according to a report out Friday from the National Science Foundation.

The survey of 2,200 people in the United States was conducted by the NSF in 2012 and released on Friday at an annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting in Chicago.

To the question "Does the Earth go around the Sun, or does the Sun go around the Earth," 26 percent of those surveyed answered incorrectly.

You do have what it takes to wake up, You should give this lady a listen if you don't want to ask your wife maybe she will take the time. Esp. iff you guys have kids . I know it's hard to listen or watch some chit you don't like, or have an interest in, or possibly can't even agree with.

The program has worked and people don't even know it.

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." ~Ronald Reagan, 40th president of U.S.

Those would be the offspring of those who believed dinosaurs and humans lived together since they saw it on the Flintstones.

Or because the Bible says so.

That's not in the Bible silly.

That's how Christophobes roll.
