Had this been a student pointing out a liberal bias in a textbook, I venture to guess most posters here would be supportive. I think the point being missed here is that the student is actually taking this much of an interest.......but that’s just me.

I tend to agree. I like the fact that the student is actually thinking about what is in his textbook, rather than mindlessly accepting it all.

I don't want students mindlessly accepting everything at school, whether it comes from a conservative or liberal perspective -- that's just brainwashing, not teaching.

If he and his supporters (at AgitProp Media) are blindly parroting the “overwhelming scientific communist community 99.9% assures us that man is responsbile for global warming and can change the atmosphere for good and well as bad...” then he isn’t “thinking” on his own at all.
