Definitely a step in the right direction! All we need to do now is outlaw science, reinstate slavery and overturn Roe vs Wade. It is nice to see people embracing the future!

Didn't read/watch the link, but I don't have a problem with intelligent design being offered as a theory if evolution is. I mean, the left is all about "choice", isn't it?

Not at all about ID. And that would have nothing to do with "choice" anyway.

This isn't about intelligent design or evolution or about science classes at all. All public high schools are required to offer separate "Bible classes" - a class devoted to instruction on the Bible.

Your hate filled statement makes no sense. If people are bible thumpers, they don't need to be "indoctrinated", they're already "indoctrinated." Good job on the anti-Christian bigotry.

Religion isn't a theory, it's a fantasy..If one chooses to believe it, that's fine, but fantasies shouldn't be required teaching. Especially with there are SO MANY versions of said fantasy.
