A suburban American school board found itself in court yesterday after
it tried to placate Christian fundamentalist parents by placing a
sticker on its science textbooks saying evolution was "a theory, not a
fact".
Atlanta's Cobb County school board, the second largest board in
Georgia, added the sticker two years ago after a 2,300 strong petition
attacked the presentation of "Darwinism unchallenged". Some parents
wanted creationism - the theory that God created humans according to
the Bible version - to be taught alongside evolution.
