Re: paleonet good 'creation watch' web site



Thanks for that info Lisa.

Does anyone out there know why these Christian fundamentalist groups  
are not being sued for putting religion in the schools? This is  
Christianity and we supposedly have separation of church and state. I  
am a member of the ACLU and am going to ask them about this but I  
wondered if anyone out there had heard of this approach to the problem.
