The results are in...

Well… this morning my faith in humanity has been somewhat restored. The Florida State Board of Education, by a vote of 4-3 agreed to include evolution in our school science curriculum . Certainly not an overwhelming endorsement, but a win for the side of intellect none the less.

A majority was not achieved, however, until it was agreed that evolution would be taught as a ‘scientific theory’… Duh!!… I guess the opponents were unaware of the use of the word theory in the world of science.

The St. Petersburg Times stated this morning, there will probably be numerous lawsuits at the local level when classes start next fall… The saga continues.
