Heh, yeah, my guess is that they started looking bad when all those children tried to emulate the kids they see in the old tracts where the child would challenge all the teachers facts about evolution until she breaks down in tears and accepts jesus...

Trying to challeng anyone with even a modicum of scientific education with Jack Chick's "facts" is bound to fail, which is why I guess they now encourage speaking only to children, behind the teachers' back...
