Cobb County’s creationism stickers ruled unconstitutional
by Kevin Dangoor
MSNBC – Judge nixes evolution textbook stickers talks about Cobb County, GA’s ridiculous textbook stickers that describe evolution as “a theory, not a fact”. It’s an interesting ruling, and I think it makes sense.
If they want to pursue the whole “Intelligent Design” idea, they should look for a textbook that talks about that, rather than slapping bogus stickers on real textbooks.
Either that, or they can try to get President Bush to vie for a constitutional amendment that would “clarify” evolution’s position as a theory 
Clearly a lot of people need MORE education on what science is about. And scientific terms. And about what evolution is about.
A scientific theory is not a wild guess. It’s based on evidence.
And there is evidence of evolution.
Natural selection is somewhat less a sure tested thing.
But this idea that evolution is a “scientific theory” about “the origin of life”…
That in itself is inaccurate, I believe, as evolution isn’t a claim of origin of life…
I think that chemistry has more foothold with that, if anything does.
Maybe they should be putting the warning stickers on the chemistry books instead.
It just doesn’t make sense. Evolution, nor any other science, is any threat to god, if one truly believes god is omnipotent, everywhere, and everything.
Of course superstitions never stand the test of time. Only true faith has nothing to worry about.
I guess they all believe in a paper doll?
Carl Sagan’s “Demon Haunted World” was a great book on the subject of skepticism and belief in the scientific method. Earlier on my site, I had posted a link to some alternative textbook stickers that talk about how gravity is also a theory and not a fact
