Here's an article that shows our children are speaking up in class. However, the other side is working on their presentation of doctrine.

The subject? Evolution.

Need ammunition for yourself and your family? I recommend the new Answers Magazine from Answers in Genesis. Check out the Institute for Creation Research, also.

AND! They can now boot into Windows XP using Apple's Boot Camp technology. So, you can use programs like AutoCAD that are currently Windows-only and then, after work, reboot into a safe environment free of SpyWare and Viruses, etc. for email and web surfing.

Of course, this will work on the iMac, too. :^)
