Why not keep the stickers and boot the judge?

Lets be honest…..if the text books contained only the theory of creationism then evolutionists would want to have stickers on the book. Let the stickers stay, equal time is fair. Also, the stickers do not disclaim evolution, they only incite the student to think on their own.
In the text books in Fulton county the text books wrongly state that evolution is a “fact”….no evolution is still a theory and since it is still a theory we need to express other possibilities.

you can’t tell just one side. If world history courses teach about 17 different religions, that doesn’t mean anyone is lobbying for them. if they teach one side, they’ve got to teach them all.

Jaimi,
Let’s not stop there…we need to address all sides at Universities also…they teach evolution in biology curriculums also. And then we should do the same for medical schools. In every class where they present a theory of a disease and possible treatment, they should also present the view of a South American witch doctor or a voodoo expert.
