The Royal Society's embattled director of education has resigned, days after causing uproar among scientists by appearing to endorse the teaching of creationism in science classes.

Professor Michael Reiss, a biologist and ordained Church of England clergyman, agreed to step down from his position with the U.K.'s national academy of science after it decided his comments had damaged its reputation.

His resignation follows a campaign by senior fellows of the august institution, led by a Nobel prize-winner, who were angered by Professor Reiss' suggestion that science teachers should treat creationist beliefs "not as a misconception but as a world view."

Sir Richard Roberts, who won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1993, described such views as outrageous, and organized a letter to its president, Lord Rees of Ludlow, demanding that Professor Reiss be sacked.

Phil Willis, the chairman of the House of Commons Innovation, Universities, Science and Skills Committee, was tomorrow due to meet Royal Society officers to demand an explanation of his comments and the academy's position.

The beatitudes according to me and the Libronix digital Bible and dictionary.com and God

Th Beatitudes in my words...

And Jesus looked up and he saw tons of people, so he and the disciples went up on the mountain and sat down to get comfy. After he sat down he started teaching, and he said, "Happy are the humble, because they are on God's will, they get God's stuff. Happy are the sad, for they won't be sad anymore. Happy are the people who let people push them around, for they get the earth. Happy are those who long to be friends with God, for he will grant them that. Happy are those who love there enemies, for they will receive love back.

Aprils Definition of Anarchy

Sorry I'm not sure if this is the right blog or not.

Definition:

The absence of government, the state of society where there is no law or supreme power; a state of lawlessness;political confusion.

View: I do not think that this is a good idea because without any government or laws how would this place function? It wouldn't, at least not well anyways. It would probably be mahem.

Welcome oh students

Greetings to those who love the truth!

We are going to study the greatest, most amazing, most incredible book ever written this year. Because in the pages of the Bible the nature and character of God Himself are revealed. The Bible is a book written for you, to you and it is from God Himself, the greatest person ever to live.

This is our blog and no one elses! Its where we post assignments (I hate paper and pencils). Its where topics are discussed and its where much of your grade for this class will come. Its also the training ground for where you learn to think. There are a few rules you should know before we get started.

1. This is not a social networking site, so don't add stuff that I don't assign you.


2. Use good grammar here, I hate text language, so utilize your grammar and spell checker on your computer


3. Have fun with it and learn to think for yourself.


4. And don't plagerize (that means copying). If you cheat, I'll find out!

So lets study the Newer Testament and get to know Jesus better.
