It appears the Intelligent Design movement may have adapted to the current environment and changed its tactics in order to stay viable as a movement. Hmmmm… there’s a word for that somewhere… oh yeah, it’s called “irony”.
Louisiana teachers will now be allowed to bring in supplimentary textbooks which promote different theories on the origin of life on earth. By different, they mean Intelligent Design (the world is only 6,000 years old).
Now I have no problem with discussions going on about the origin of life, but teachers have a responsibility to their students to prepare them for the future. They also have a position of authority over them. Science should be taught from a scientific perspective, and religion should be taught from a religious perspective – but not in public schools. If we’re going to teach intelligent design there, who’s version do we use?
His?

One thing I’m sure of though, is that my kids will at the very least be able to get into college before anyone from the public schools in the Bible Belt.
