Title IX is not about money.... it is about discrimination based on
sex. Think about men's athletics vs. women's athletics, when you were
in school.... any difference in funding from the school?
Now, the hammer is that if the school receives Federal Assistance, the
school can't treat the girls that way.
I guess, if you want to create a school and pay your own way, you can
be as discriminatory as you wish....
Liberty U?

nope! *And even if so.
so what?
Hehehe.

It does?

Yeah, it does.

Really?

Huh, I must be missing something.

But that's ok.

I think Liberty U teaches that science supports the concept of
intelligent design.

As Ben Stein, speaking on the theory of evolution, once said, "It
would be the approximate equivalent of a tornado passing over a junk
yard and leaving a fully finished 777 jetliner in an airport right
next to it."

Harry can't discuss, but he *can* find reason to ridicule in any
comment made by any person. He seems especially ready to jump on any
comment made about one's kids, grandkids, nephews, or nieces.

I wonder why? It sure as hell doesn't have to do with a strong desire
on his part to stay 'on topic'!

Title 9, Ted Kennedy. We're indebted to him despite his faults.

"It is difficult to characterize the impact of Title IX on athletics
in an unbiased way. Advocates cite increases in female athletic
participation; however, such increases might have occurred in the
absence of legislation."
[...]
"The law was renamed as the Patsy T. Mink Equal Opportunity in
Education Act on October 29, 2002, upon the death of the law's
principal author, Congresswoman Patsy T. Mink. It was also written by
Oregon Congresswoman Edith Green."

Teddy was instrumental in getting it through.

"Teddy"? I don't suppose you have a shrine in your basement?


I don't suppose you're ignorant of what he actually did with his life. What
did you do that even comes close?

I don't recall havng criticized the man anywhere in these threads.
But, I'm not given to idol worship either.

Good for you! Clearly, Kennedy is less than perfect. But, he did lots of
great things also. Do those great things make up for his foibles? I have no
idea. I'd say, a qualified no, but he still did great things.

I cannot speak for whom your question is directed, but I can only
speak for myself.

I am not ignorant of what the senator actually did with his life. And
what I have done doesn't even come close.

I stayed sober, drug free and have lived in marriage with the same
woman for thirty-seven years!

I'll take you at your word, but you also attempted to go after me with some
ideological label re the "shrine" comment. That's better left to shrill and
timid people.

Ben Stein knows nothing about which he speaks, and assuming this is his
quote, it makes no sense at all, and it has nothing to do with evolution,
which is a proven and provable fact.

He's a bloody fool.

Why anyone would set him out as an expert on the origins of the
universe or life is beyond my comprehension.

I find it odd that anyone would speak of any politician
affectionately, unless those person were immediately related. I also
think it odd for any person to idolize another person, regardless of
stature and estate, unless the other person is immediate family.
