The bill made it considerably easier for teachers to introduce creationist textbooks into the classroom. Outraged, he wrote a research paper about it for a high school English class. Nearly five years later, the 19-year-old Kopplin has become one of the fiercest — and most feared — advocates for education reform in Louisiana. We recently spoke to him to learn more about how he's making a difference." more here
Mick Bynes Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Kudos to him! I know those people down there are uptight conservatives and stuff.
VforVoluntary49 Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 I think his situation is very similar to many situations people like himself and in his age bracket have experienced-the idea that all he has to do is present an idea or the truth and that it will be obvious to people and they will take it to the next level. Major kudos to him for despising that that wouldn't happen and taking it upon himself to actively work at changing the world around him instead of falling into despair or giving up when he realizes how alone he is down there. Too many people have too much vested in these falsehoods-anyone speaking the truth has to not only fight the lie but all the parasites clinging to it. I hope more people see him fighting his fight andy it gets them to stand up too
