Wisconsin district to teach more than evolution
CNN- wisc. school to teach creationism

It has already started. The destruction of our country from within.


GRANTSBURG, Wisconsin (AP) -- School officials have revised the science curriculum to allow the teaching of creationism, prompting an outcry from more than 300 educators who urged that the decision be reversed.

Members of Grantsburg's school board believed that a state law governing the teaching of evolution was too restrictive. The science curriculum "should not be totally inclusive of just one scientific theory," said Joni Burgin, superintendent of the district of 1,000 students in northwest Wisconsin.

1. That's because there is only ONE scientific theory
And it's not even a theory, as it is proven by solid evidence. Creationism IS a theory, and it's a bad one at that. There is NO science involved at all. Fuckin' fundie assholes!
