Good grief

MTV.com - think - Headlines - Science Classes In Kansas Will Now Question Evolution Theory

Having gone to school in Kansas, I'm now imagining what science teachers are going to have to do. Personally I tend to believe that both science and religion are two sides of a coin; both hold beliefs that are tested in one way or another over time, with specialists who speak in a language not grasped by the average person. But evolution has been borne out time and again as a very basic tenet, whereas intelligent design is in no way provable. Agh. Let's keep religion out of the schools and let parents and religious institutions (notice I didn't say church, as you should include synagogues, mosques, and temples, among others) take care of that aspect.
