Post: Anti-Science/Anti-Evolution/Pro-Fundamentalist Bill in La.

Posted by tamagosan on 5/04/08

    The crucial mission of furthering science education in
    Louisiana is seriously jeopardized by this blatant
    politicization of science in our schools. If creationists
    are allowed to inject their narrow interpretation of human
    origins in biology classes, the entire project of science,
    which is based on independently verifiable observations and
    rigorously tested hypothesis, will be undermined.

    From the link:

    House Bill 1168 (PDF) was introduced in the Louisiana House
    of Representatives on April 21, 2008. Dubbed the "Louisiana
    Academic Freedom Act," HB 1168 is a counterpart of the
    original version of Senate Bill 561, which was passed, in
    amended form, by the Senate Education Committee on April
    17, 2008.
