Ok, we've had a nice debate about the nature of science, the validity of the
theory of evolution, the validity of other explanations of the origin of
species, the rights of freedom of speech and freedom of religion, theories
of education, etc.

I think such a debate is an *important* topic. I also think it's a bit like
the beating of a dead horse.  We all have dearly-held opinions, we all
believe our beliefs are far and away the best, and *none* of us is changing
her opinion based on this discussion.  Time for a new topic (in my opinion,
based on my world view).
