Topic: Robert Simonds


  
  Separation of church and state on trial
In his How to Elect Christians to Public Office, Dr. Robert L. Simonds states, "The separation of church and state is another 'myth' the ACLU, NEA and NOW have sold the public." Robert Simonds heads the Orange County, California-based Citizens for Excellence in Education, and the National Association of Christian Educators.
As Simonds listed several documents, including the "Northwest Passage," (although he probably in- tended to say the Northwest Ordinance), and invited listeners to "name it," meaning an historical document in which the phrase "separation of church and state" is used, the Freedom Writer believes it has met Simonds' challenge.
Simonds' organization is often criticized by mainstream groups such as the National Education Association and People for the American Way, but right-wing groups readily praise his work.

In a town where mimicry is the ultimate form of praise, Simonds saw his filmmaking formula increasingly cloned by other producers hoping for the same alchemy at the box office; the niche that he had created, established and expanded was soon overcrowded with copycats casting for the next Waterboy, Wedding Singer and Happy Gilmore.
Simonds currently sits on the boards of Los Angeles County Museum, The California Science Center, Los Angeles World Affairs Council, LA Area Chamber of Commerce, and LA’s BEST, a nationally recognized after-school program serving 18,000 students in the LA area.

One of Pennock's major innovations is to turn from biological evolution to the less charged subject of linguistic evolution, which has strong theoretical parallels with biological evolution, both in content and in the sort of evidence scientists use to draw conclusions about origins.
True, there have been some arguments, such as those given by Robert Nozick, from the idea that property rights are so sacred as to be inviolable, but the overwhelming support that there is for free-market economies comes from the presumption that competition inevitably causes products of increasing quality and decreasing cost.
