Hey, what's up, OP?

>>1355491 was right. Our primary and secondary school education varies by state. The states by oceans (and therefore, civilization) have, compared to Europe, fair-to-middling schools. The states between the Mississippi River and the Cascade Mountain Range are not uniformly shitty, but you're a lot more likely to find people who believe the Earth is 6000 years old.

I think it has a lot to do with isolationism. The middle states are more sparsely populated, so there's more room, metaphorically, for ass-backward ideas to take root.

The university level education is a lot more uniform by location, although it's still true that the most prestigious (expensive) universities are on the coastal states.

>> No.1355662

In principle, vietnam:

1) Help our bros (france)
2) help our bro (ho chi minh)
3) fuck the bad guy (ho chi minh)

high-larious.

But after (3) was settled, the goal was really just to protect the borders. That was a success. Unfortunately, the *hope* was that south vietnam would get its shit together if it didn't have to worry about the borders. Tremendous failure. The corrupt fucking government couldn't even manage to get its shit together in spite of the huge anti-communist sentiment after the tet offensive.

tl;dr the us didn't lose vietnam, vietnam lost vietnam

yep. post a video of a school in texas or tennessee and it goes viral and everybody lols at the stupid americans.

I've never been in a church, none of my friends were religious growing up, and in my school a letter was sent home with every student that said we are teaching evolution and if you don't like it come pick up your kid between noon and 1 for the next x weeks, but none of the parents ever did. This is how it is for all of the states that matter.

this, the reality is there is no big controversy, the creationists number quite small and have next to no influence. What's actually kind of funny is the mutually beneficial relationship developed between the "omg! Rising tide of creationism!" crowd and the "omg! Their telling our children sinful things!" crowd providing each side their need persecution complex fuel.

I agree to an extent. Only hardcore religious people/cultures/places/etc are insults to intellectualism. For every christfag there are at least ten, if not 100 people who can either reconcile the conflicting views or just don't take it too seriously because they are actually intelligent enough to realize no religion was meant to be taken completely literally.
