Well... Kansas School Board of Education has continued to increase it's bad image by teaching evolution as a flawed theory. As the laughing stalk of the nation, it's no wonder Kansas is such a terrible place to be from. All we have is the Wizard of Oz, farms, "where's that again?" and more problems with evolution. We could do things such as refuse to support Kansas, but wouldn't that be like moving to Canada when Bush won the election.... It doesn't solve anything to leave it alone. What about those who have to live in Kansas? Who grow up in Kansas? Kansas has some good things...
It makes me wonder though... how do people get on school boards? People vote for them, I believe. But who ever worries about who they vote for to be on the school board? Shouldn't this be more of a focus? These people choose what our children learn in public schools. That's huge! Or maybe it is a big deal and I've just never noticed how much people put into elections of school board members. Makes me wish I was still voting in Kansas for the next elections with school board members on the ballot--we need to make this state EVOLVE into the current century!

I don't understand what the huge problem is... what is it that they were actually requesting - reading out of a paragraph that suggests there are alternative explanations for our existence?
I don't know a heck of a lot about this (but will read up after exams!), but Darwin's theory (as interpreted from his original works) IS flawed and has been modified many times over the years. Nonetheless, it is still THEORY, just like much of science. What is wrong with casting a little doubt over it? Of course, imposing a religious teaching is a problem - but what exactly was it that they wanted? Please explain. =)
