I'd have to do some digging. Someone showed it to me on their phone. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I saw that video. It was pretty awesome. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

If that's what helps you sleep at night. I call it being a good steward of my time.

Well, Noah had seven, and we don't know about Jeremiah. He could have had zero, but as far as I can tell, we don't know for sure. But that's not the point. It's not a popularity contest. I have had converts. Why would I change my method? Why would I care what Comfort has to say (even if I...

I am ignorant. Of the content of his books. But I am not ignorant of the man. I know enough about him to know that I could never in good conscience read anything by him, because I know how wrong he was on other topics. Not just wrong, but willingly idiotic. Second, and this is NOT a personal...

Not exactly "baby with bath water". But if a man can be so ignorant (and it was bad!) and yet still speak as if he's an authority on something, then he's a man that people need to stay away from. Because he doesn't even know when he's so far removed so as not to be talking about the subject any...

I refuse to read anything by Ray Comfort, to be honest. The main reason is that I've seen some videos of his concerning creation versus evolution, and he made himself (and all creationists by association) sound like a complete idiot. If someone is attempting to speak as an authority on...

Holy. Cow. I just had an entire response typed up, and lost it because of a page refresh. I'll have to respond later. Now I'm too frustrated.

Terrell, first off, I was going to say welcome to the board, but evidently you're a long time / little post member. I don't know how much you lurk, or how much you've seen, but let me point you to this: http://www.baptistboard.com/threads/statistics-dont-and-cant-lie.101121/ Before I go...

No, thank you. I've been getting enough laughs out of this thread.

And that's the problem.

Along those lines, I am not concerned about common core being used as the standard. But I am against the system. How well students do on standardized testing can sometimes (often?) be out of the teacher's control. The current system often leads to "teaching to the test". You might be interested...

I just now addressed this concern in my reply in your other thread. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk

I cut your post out, not out of disrespect, but because you know what you said and I didn't want a wall of text. As a teacher in training, we learn about AYG, or Average Yearly Growth (sometimes "D" for "Development"). It's a grading system that each state uses to determine school effectiveness...

Ok, I've finally had a chance to read the article, and watch the video clip, all while taking notes. I'm guessing this post will be long, so please bear with me. We'll address the video first, which has different points, or in a different order than the list in the article. If these overlap...

I took out the quote, as it's unnecessary, off-topic, and reported for outright saying I wasn't saved. No need to respond to it further than that.

Like I said, I'm not an expert. But I am experienced. Now, I would not die on the mountain if someone were to say that the extremists are the true Muslims and the moderates were not. That's a different debate, one which you would probably win with your (seemingly, to me anyway) better knowledge...

Whether we want to admit it or not, we all use common core math pretty much every day. I know I did every time I counted back change without a cash register. I haven't begun to teach my homeschooled girls any common core methods, but they are naturally using those methods in their math. For...

Rev, I know you're on a crusade against common core right now, and I plan to answer your other thread in full later. But you know as well as I do that your connection between math standards and this rule is nonexistent. Sent from my QTAQZ3 using Tapatalk
