~sigh~ And now more from Florida. My head hurts, and I want to cry. Or shoot someone. Haven't decided for sure ;) http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/news_education_edblog/2008/03/will-we-be-hear.html [quote] Short recap: By a 4-3 vote,The State Board of Education approved new science standards last month that were controversial because they require teaching evolution. As a compromise of sorts -- it didn't really appease opponents and angered the standards' backers -- the board inserted the phrase "scientific theory of" before the word evolution. After the vote, John Stemberger, the head of the Florida Family Policy Council ,said social conservatives would push for an "academic freedom" measure when the Legislature convenes this month. Such a proposal would protect teachers who teach alternatives to evolution. House Speaker Marco Rubio -- who wanted evolution taught as a theory -- told the Florida Baptist Witness such a plan might gain traction in the house. [/quote]
