A Bit Behind

Sunday, January 22nd, 2012

It has been a busy week for those of us keeping track of anti-evolution legislation. Once again this year, the bills are cropping up in all the usual places, Oklahoma and Missouri among them. This week there were two bills filed in Missouri and one in Oklahoma.

One of the bills in Missouri is identical to a bill that died last year. The other bill in Missouri specifically requires equal treatment of evolution and intelligent design.

The Oklahoma bill is apparently modeled on the Louisiana Science Eduction Act. It has been put forth by the same guy who openly stated last year that his intent was for creation science to be taught alongside evolution.
