100 Years Later and We're Still Arguing...
It must be hard to live in Kansas....
Geesh...living in the plains is probably tough, but living in the plains and being a free thinker must be double difficult. Sadly, nearly 100 years after the Scopes Monkey Trial, we're still arguing about evolution. Worse yet is that some Christians can't understand that evolution doesn't necessarily negate creationism..and in my humble view makes it all much more complex and interesting. Anyway, as they keep saying...evolution is merely a theory...yes, and so is gravity, relativity, electromagnetism and George Bush being a Republican....
Three cheers for the free thinkers in Kansas who are fighting the good fight.
Teachers, Scientists Vow to Fight Challenge to Evolution
