Hello,
As the subject line indicates, I really need help uninstalling python on my mac..
Uninstalling python from a mac seems to be an absurdly overlooked topic. The one resource i have found addressing the issue, a stack overflow thread, doesn't give me the amount of direction i need to successfully uninstall.

The reason i (think i) need to uninstall python is that when i open IDLE i get this warning: "WARNING: The version of Tcl/Tk (8.5.9) in use may be unstable.Visit http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/ for current information.". 

I've heard i need to install a system appropriate tcl/tk (which i believe i have done) before reinstalling python, but seeing as i cannot uninstall python I do not see any way to resolve this issue. Python.org doesn't seem to have any information that addresses this problem, so I have come here in hopes of some guidance. 

Thanks,-Christian
