Pennsylvania Adheres to Proven Ground, Kansas Caters to Dogmatic Christians
Evolution and Intelligent Design
*
That is Kansas, the land of Oz.
*****
Interesting that in Dover, Pennsylvania, all eight members of the school board who supported teaching of intelligent design were defeated by challengers who opposed it. In Kansas, it was other way around--The Board of Education voted 6 to 4 in support of teaching standards that strongly favor the concept of intelligent design. "Schools to teach Doubts About Evolution Theory" The Post reported "TOPEKA, Kan., Nov. 8 -- The Kansas Board of Education voted Tuesday that students will be expected to study doubts about modern Darwinian theory, a move that defied the nation's scientific establishment even as it gave voice to religious conservatives and others who question the theory of evolution."
That is Kansas, the land of Oz.
