Participantgandalf, based on your last post I am reasonably sure you have no idea what intelligent design is. Intelligent design has nothing to do with either of the two (factually contradictory) Genesis stories. The basic theory of intelligent design is that, natural selection is insufficient to explain the evolution of creation. There are various good reasons for why natural selection is insufficient such as irreducible complexity of certain systems (disputed by numerous scientist) or just the statistical improbability of only natural selection resulting in our evolution.
I am not a big proponent of intelligent design as science. I personally do not care. But, I do think that natural selection alone takes a good bit of faith.
But I repeat, Intelligent design has nothing to do with Christianity/Judaism or Genesis.
ParticipantI don’t understand how you got on your high horse about people hedged in fear…If anything I find the response from the self described liberals as ANTI-religion and anti-God in general…There seems to be an innate fear or distrust of religion. I do not fear the a-religious. I just want a fair choice.
My suggestion, one that was not well received, was that public schools need to be much more diverse in what they teach and how they teach it. This goes from science and liberal arts to religion and philosophy. We need more ability to choose where our children go, and what they learn. To select a curriculum that is applied to everyone, makes no sense to me and I find it banal and harmful to the ingenuity and diversity of our country.
If we are talking implementation, I think a fairly simple solution would be vouchers…But I am not wed to it, and I am sure there are other models that would work well.
I think our current a-religions education borders on secular humanism, although many of you disagree who have more experience in the matter. But if we have choice in where our child go and what they learn, I will not be concerned about what some other school is teaching children…it is not my business, nor yours. There is a place for God in SOME schools, but there is no place for God in ALL schools
Our current system is anti-creative, anti-energy, anti-diversity. Why are so many little boys medicated? Why are so few kids graduating? No one size education will fit all.
Freedom (choice) ends this debate before it starts…

Participantalthough you are correct about their cheapness.
I think it was more of a convenience issue. When you sell portions of a mortgage in various investment vehicles, how do you transfer a portion of the physical note with each new owner? The banks passed the chain of title to MERS and MERS kept track of who owned what without ever changing the physical note…
At least that is my oversimplified understanding of it.
