Object: School board rescinds policy allowing evolution alternatives
Shouldn't these children at least be exposed to different 'truths'?
Afterall, everyone thinks their way is right.

RIO RANCHO, N.M. - The school board in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, has repealed
a policy allowing alternatives to evolution to be discussed in public school
science classes.
The board's 3-2 vote reverses a 2005 board decision to adopt the policy.
The earlier board vote also was 3-2. Only two board members who supported
the policy are still on the board, and they voted against rescinding it. One
of them is a local pastor.
Opponents said the policy was a tactic to teach intelligent design, which
maintains that life and the universe are too complex to have evolved by
accident.

How ironic that you're taking Pontius Pilate's position on "truth".
What would Jesus say?
