The Tennessee Two

February 19, 2011

Oh look! A second anti-evolution bill in Tennessee. They’re taking a belt and braces approach to this apparently. This one (SB 893 PDF) would require authorities to “assist teachers to find effective ways to present the science curriculum as it addresses scientific controversies” such as “biological evolution, the chemical origins of life, global warming, and human cloning.” It would permit teachers to “help students understand, analyze, critique, and review in an objective manner the scientific strengths and scientific weaknesses of existing scientific theories covered in the course being taught.” Haven’t we seen this before?
