Dunce of the Week: pro-intelligent design candidate for HI Board of Ed.

[KamaAina]

Obviously anyone who thinks intelligent design (an oxymoron on par with "conservative thinker") should be taught instead of science is a bit of a :dunce: but Hawai'i Board of Ed candidate Henry Hoeft Jr. takes the cake.

Our free weekly, Honolulu Weekly, sent out questionnaires to all candidates. Here is Hoeft's response:

Henry W. Hoeft, Jr.
Residence: Waipahu...

Should public schools teach intelligent design? Should be taught side-by-side with Darwin’s Theory of Evolution and students can decide which view to accept...

Public school graduate? Yes, Damien Memorial High

Just one minor glitch: Damien is a Catholic school!

Welcome to the Damien Memorial School Homepage. Damien is a private Catholic school for young men located in historic Kalihi, a section of Honolulu, Hawaii. The school is sponsored by the Congregation of Christian Brothers and is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

Hmm... not sounding one bit like a public school to me... I give you Henry Hoeft, Dunce of the Week! :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:
