My Son Needs Some Help. Anti-Evolution Speaker Coming to His School

[Drahthaardogs]

79. You mention "Palmetto Scholar" long after my post #27.

1) I am very good, but a Soothsayer I am not.

2) Let your son do his own homework, it matters not if you OFFERED or if he asked.

3) The Helicopter Parenting thing is a bit banal; he's an adult at a fine University. Let it go.

4) My only "agenda" is to hopefully advise a promising young adult that sometimes shutting their mouth and opening their ears will give them a far greater advantage than running off at the mouth. By your own admission, Mr. Nutting has the advantage of practical experience and thousands of repetitions. He will likely bend your son like a pretzel if he engages him. However, if you son has the smarts to sit back, let others engage him, and observe (as a good scientist should) he will likely come away from this with more astute than he was at the beginning.

5) Now you can honestly say I have made an ad hominem response, #2 and #3 seem to fit the bill.
