ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) -- The state's school superintendent has proposed striking the word evolution from Georgia's science curriculum and replacing it with the phrase "biological changes over time." article
Because....."evolution" means what?
...the ban was proposed, in part, to alleviate pressure on teachers in socially conservative areas where parents object to its teaching.
"If teachers across this state, parents across this state say, 'This is not what we want,' then we'll change it," said Cox, a Republican elected in 2002.
Well, nobody's happy. Science proponents because the proposal bows to creationists, and creationists because it doesn't strike down teaching the idea, just using the "buzzword" evolution.
....hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
