    West Virginia learning nothing from Kansas doung the same dumb shit with their board of education two decades ago sounds about right.

    Also, it seems that legislators don’t know the difference between a scientific theory which is supported by evidence and a layman’s theory which is a hypothesis.

      Religious extremists will always work to propagate their beliefs by coopting state resources: in this case, the education system. They know their ideas can’t stand on their own merits, so they instead work to weasel their way in through forced prayer in school, teaching of religious ideas in science class, and of course, censorship of school libraries. It is theft of our taxpayer dollars to support their proselytization, which is ironic because some of these creeps are the same people raving about welfare queens and food stamps.
