Teacher’s Creation Battle: Controversy Evolving

How can a biology teacher with even a modicum of scientific principle in him impose his religious conviction on his students in class?

Biologists and citizens who value and care for scientific education for our youngsters should reject this blatant attempt to inject religion in the teaching of science.

Isaac Asimov must have this kind of unsettling scene in mind when he said, “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’ ”
