State Approves Evolution As 'Scientific Theory'

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The teaching standards for Florida schools include the word "evolution" for the first time, under a decision Tuesday by the state school board.

The board approved the use of the term "scientific theory of evolution" in public schools science standards.

Previously, the term was couched by using phrases such as "change over time." The reaction in Tallahassee from those opposed and those for the change was fairly low key, Local 10 reported.

Next week, they're going to take up that new-fangled radiograph thing that the Italian fella has been pushing. If it works, maybe they could talk to the people who built the canals on Mars!

I just finished reading a good concise book, Science, Evolution, and Creationism, which deals with this topic. It is available to download for free from the National Academies Press, along with myriad other fascinating books.
