Evolution is only a theory...


As you may have heard, in 2006, the Kansas school board was campaigned to add required labels to textbooks that mention evolution. There have been many parodies on the “Warning, Evolution is only a theory” labels, these are my favourite:) campaigned to add required labels to textbooks that mention evolution.

Cobb county, GEORGIA, not Kansas.

The Kansans aren't the only cretinists trying to ruin education in the USA.

Here in Georgia, we are now teaching an alternative and competing theory to that of gravity - INTELLIGENT FALLING!

Have we come so far as this?

While these parodies are good for a laugh, such suggested reminders, from time to time, are not such a bad idea.

Why close the book on our understanding of gravity or even the supposed shape of the earth? If true science teaches us anything, it is that things are not always what they seem to be. Why not challenge young minds to keep learning and to be willing to uncover new information?

What kind of universe will we understand two hundred years from now? Will we persecute those who tell us that things are not as we've been taught they are?

Why O why can't these kind of labels be put in bibles?

You make a good point Jim.
