The one-sentence legislation now declares that “no local school board, school superintendent, or school principal shall prohibit a public school classroom teacher from discussing and answering questions from students about scientific theories of how the universe and/or life came to exist.”
Seems like a really weird thing to make into a law. Does West Virginia codify any other part of their curriculum into a statute?
So they’re not ordering new text books (yet) they’re just allowing teachers to bring it up, and answer questions.
Sounds like it will open the door for crackpot teachers, but it’s not “being taught” in the school. Definitely a slippery-slope, hopefully not many teachers indulge.
What’s amusing is how the Nat C’s are confused about what evolution entails - it does not cover the Big Bang or abiogenesis. But if you get into discussions (if you can call them that) with these types, they will typically use strawmen phrases such as “Molecules to Man” in reference to science.
All they usually do is just repeat a bunch of Gish Gallop horse manure that is just quite a thing to behold in its combined arrogance and ignorance.

“Creationism is not a scientific theory. Next question?”
My thoughts exactly.

I’m assuming this is a Poe, but Ray Comfort comes to mind anyway… XD

Poe indeed lol I’m torn on using the /s or not, it depends on just how bad I was at making the joke obvious.
