In the News: Evolution returns to state board's agenda |
From the article:
----------------------------
Topeka — The Kansas State Board of Education on Tuesday teed up
evolution as a campaign issue for the 2004 election cycle.
The board voted 7-3 for a full-scale review of science testing
standards to start in August 2004, just in time for the party
primaries in five education board races.

It keeps making me want to move out.
But, I am the product of a US education,
I wonder if anyone else'd take me.

I want to move out of Australia too... but the question is where to go? New
Zealand and a few northern European countries are civilised at the moment
(maybe Germany too). And that's not an established pattern over a long
period of time...

Sounds like a great idea, use democracy to decide what's better to teach
in
schools; science, or unfounded myths and fantasy stories. :-( Why do
people
have a wish to ruin the education for people? Let's all be glad the bible
doesn't say that time and space are absolute, or that objects with rest
mass
can reach c. That would result in rather interesting physics classes.
Yeah, but in Kings there is a reference that pi=3!

Interesting that challenges to evolution generally are sponsored by
political and religious conservatives. So much for just following the
data where it leads. I hope the Democrats can point out that
evolutionary biology is not run by a cabal of liberal atheists but by
those who want to use science to help the world.
