...endeavor to assist teachers to find more effective ways to present the science curriculum...
Is it possible to make a more vague statement??
It is as intentionally vague and meaningless as "Helps fight the appearance of wrinkles".
{abe}
One question I would have when considering passing this amendment: Why only teach the controversy of evolution?
If us flat-earthers don't get our fair share of the curriculum, then there will be trouble...

I'd like this thread to discuss why the Dover trial hasn't put a stop to this nonsense
The Dover trial was not about proving right or wrong - it was about winning or losing.
And just because IDists lost the battle doesn't mean that they think that they have lost the war.
Remember: they are knowingly trying to get christianity forced in to schools.
The judgement simply showed them that they need to try harder at hiding their true intent (and throw christian honesty to the wind.)
Did you really think that a single court judgement would dissuade the religious?

Really? You would have to consider that question?
It was meant to point out the inconsistency and obvious religious bent of the changes being requested.
But I expect that since you live in America, these things are a far more immediate and visceral threat to you - so perhaps my humour was misplaced.
tbh: America (and the people in power) seem to be getting more religious and not less.
If I were you, I would have moved to Canada by now. (Not a joke.)

Re: here is the crux
Fair enough.
Your retraction is accepted.
Next time, please try and maintain a reasonable level of consistency in your statements.
Thank you.
