Cobb Evolution Textbook Stickers Case

Atlanta ROFTERS: Cobb Evolution Textbook Stickers Case Kicked Back To Lower Court

One thing that the casual news browser may not grasp at first glom is that the school board here was never trying to impose creationism on the students. Not directly, at least. The school board was trying to upgrade its science education, going from barely teaching evolution at all, to teaching evolution more fully, but putting these ridiculous “warning” stickers in the textbooks, to placate the fundamentalists parents. Which is to say, the policy was a consensus monster, with the (elected) board trying to please everyone.
