Apparently, they are hell-bent on preventing PROVEN SCIENCE from being taught in SCIENCE classes...

1. Oh Yea? Bob Boudelang Tol Me The Troof.
Science ain't been proven. It is all theory and we went our way to have another toke.

2. Connie Morris: The earth is only 5600 years old
This woman is a criminally idiotic retard. She has made statements such as "the earth is 5600 years old" and "all of human history" has occurred within that timeframe.

She has said that dinosaurs are a "myth" and that evolution is "of the devil."

This from the state that brought us Sam Brownback, the knuckle-dragging turd who has claimed that Jesus Christ was "lighter skinned" than most middle easterners because "God" wanted him to be distinct from other people of his time.

3. Evolution is a fairy tale?
...Circulated Monday was a newsletter from Morris, in which she derided evolution as an "age-old fairy tale," sometimes defended with "anti-God contempt and arrogance." She wrote that evolution is "a theory in crisis" and headlined one section of her newsletter "The Evolutionists are in Panic Mode!"

5. How many credits will they offer for the:
"the Moon is Made of Green Cheese" course?
or
"the Earth is Flat" course
or
"the Earth is the Center of the Universe" course???

Are there any adults left in Kansas?

Is that why their baseball team sucks so badly?

8. Belief in fairy tales is paramount.
Science is just too difficult. It requires a higher IQ and work. It's much easier to believe in little children stories.
