Quote:The theory of evolution has become a flashpoint for religious conservatives, many of whom argue that the idea of life evolving over billions of years clashes with Biblical beliefs. Republican State Rep. Gary Hopper, who with his Republican district mate John Burt introduced HB 1457, told the Concord Monitor that the theory of evolution teaches students that life is nothing but an accident.

This really pisses me off!!!
As the mother of a 1st grader, and two girls that are not yet school aged, I am infuriated that this is still an issue. If these stupid fucking religious fools want their kids to learn fairy tales in science class, then perhaps they should send their poor children to a private fucking school, and let the secular public schools teach the reality of evolution. If this sort of revolting bullshit comes to where I live, you will be seeing me on the news.
My kids would probably get in trouble for disrupting class to tell their teacher about evolution. I mean seriously, I can hear my daughter shouting, "We're primates, not skymates! Get over it!"
Something has to be done about this madness. This is public fucking school we're talking about here! They teach evolution as a fact in Catholic schools now. WTF?!?!?!
