Dixiefag here. How do we make the South less retarded? The few smart ones are surrounded by hyper-religious nutjobs who deny a lot of science for literally no reason, even in the cities. Our culture seems to be inherently broken, and I'm at a loss on how to fix it.

stop telling them that the south has a unique cultural heritage to preserve
cousinfucking, racism, and generally making the country poorer and stupider is not a cultural heritage

Yes, but how? It's integral to the culture here. The first thing people will ask you is what church you go to. How did New England stop being a bunch of Puritan fuckers? I haven't seen any research on that.

We didn't, we replaced puritanism with Social Justice (tm) and Anti-Racism (tm). God just disappeared because the average person got richer. The South has been the way it has since before America was even a country, so I'm not really sure what you can do.

The South was wrecked economically after the civil war and I don't think they've recovered.
But they slowly have been recovering, there are a lot of people moving to Texas for jobs.
I think as the economy improves so will education.

Actually, back in the olden times before America happened, Damnyankees viewed the South as a cesspool of vice for not being Puritan. Eventually something happened to make them switch places.
I'm from a town just south of Atlanta, which is more rich than most of the South, but I'm still encountering this. I think that economics has been taking a backseat to culture, just like in places like Qatar. The post-Civil War poverty has ingrained itself in our culture.

Religious belief doesnt conflict with my scientific knowledge and skills, it seems that you think a science education demands atheism, why?
And abandon the foundation of the western world? Because reasons?
>not unique
It does though. Perhaps you wish it were more like your native homeland, but you are kind of admitting as much by expressing your unjustifiable hatred.
Middle schooler?

Less atheism, more just religious moderation. We're V E R Y religious here, and that breeds ignorance. Just watch anything by Kent Hovind or his son and you'll see what I mean.

The public schools are fine enough, certainly as good as any others in the nation - provided we are talking about a majority white school. Even nyc inner city schools fail compared to deep south schools.
