Anti-evolution bills to be revived in 2012
One bill mandates teaching evolution as a theory and another would require teachers to stress that scientific facts can be changed due to research.
The people pushing for this legislation are so fucking transparent. They know that a well rounded education in science, specifically one including evolution, can cause people to question and shed their faith in the supernatural to be replaced with reason and observable fact. That’s terrifying to these people too lazy, stubborn, and faithful to bother to learn what the basic theory of what real evolution entails (as opposed to what the “creation scientists” claim.) These fundamentalist twats want to convince our youth that there is a huge debate going on within the scientific community between creationism and evolution, one half holding their Bibles and the other half clutching their copies of The Origin of Species. There is no such debate. Just because you’re a person of faith doesn’t mean you have to live in ignorance and deny the reality of what has been proven by science. Plenty of scientists are indeed religious but they still manage to accept what is real even if it’s contrary to their holy texts. I can see some of the younger Christians rolling their eyes at the creation myth when preachers and youth ministers recount the stories as real historical occurrences, but they’re still decades away from holding any power within their groups which gives their church elders plenty of time to brainwash them further. I doubt that any of these fairy tale centered bills will be passed but it could happen. Teaching this lunacy within your churches and private religious schools is fine, but keep your myths out of the real science classrooms. Some of us want to learn about the real, actual world in which we’re living the only lives we have any evidence of, rather than live in a fantasy world of talking snakes, magic fruit, and rib-women.
