the Texas a school board is currently deciding on new science textbooks
and of course that means massive trouble because if you're in Texas
well they're not really all that *** science in general
the board is absolutely packed with right-wingers
and they do desperately want to inject
religion in the classroom the Texas freedom network is a group that
advocates for church and state separation in Texas
and they obtained notes from the state school board
and found that the board members even went as far get this
as the claim that the Guardian novick even
is science and it is the equal when it is equal to
the theory of evolution so
religion equals evolution same thing exact same thing
funny so it's where that they feel like that I guess they will be teaching the
bog provide geena along the Bible as if it is back to write
and ok with the koran obviously it's one other
biggest religions in the world is well so you have to teach the Koran as if it
is fact
you have to teach that the the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
%uh allies the only God yes indeed all these things right alongside
the Bible right all that's right they don't want indoctrinate your kids with
Islam
or Buddhism Hinduism know they just wanna indoctrinate these kids with the
their religion not even mormonism no Jehovah's Witness nonsense
but no scientology jus their religion they want to tell my kids equal to
science
this is unbelievable so
I wanna board members a nutritionist
at Texas A&M named Karen be hard said quote
student should have the opportunity to use their critical thinking skills to
weigh the evidence between evolution and creation science
so in other words what their strategy is
they say well you have to teach the controversy the show you pretend like an
issue is debatable innings and we have to teach both sides because thats
intellectual fairness that's balanced each both sides
but there's one problem there is no controversy
in the scientific community evolution is accepted theory
and religion is religion has nothing to do with science it's a totally different
subject
is like saying page should we teach the catcher in the rye
in the math class what no The Catcher in the Rye is a book
it's not math you know we should to teach both because you have to be fair
balance
needed any academic freedom you gotta teach both sides you are you talking
about you're not making any sense
now um
realize how radical this s what you have is this season even
hey let's teach Intel it but intelligent design
now intelligent design is where they say cutie to God the gap so what they say
wherever signs doesn't have in
answer right right away right now wherever there's a gap in the fossil
record for example evolution
you are you watch where God stepped in and connected the dots sorry man has
been used throughout human history
but so that's one area where they are teaching tool design this isn't even
that
this isn't even then DOMA version of intelligent design which is creationism
or you just teach
you know but up essentially biblical version avoid things
this is like literally goal to the Bible and take out the passages with
a the Garden of Eden anatomy even teams that in the science class
man if this doesn't scare you
about this data for education system particularly in the red states
I don't know what will %uh and
what is the supreme court said about this well the bay and
this exactly in 1987 but the school board is acting like that case never
existed in federal law doesn't exist they're just brushing right over it
and I love this a one other
the chair Barbara Cargill the chair the
the School Board of Education used as evidence that we should teach
but Adam n Eve and the Garden of Eden she said well look I was the experts
here that support it
you know who's on the list a dietitian and a chemical engineer
but she actually are you well as the same that's their scientist
she's arguing in dietitian knows as much about science as a biologist
they don't know anything about biology or evolution let me take a couple the
press here before I lose my temper even further
