Louisiana Joins the Fray

There’s an academic freedom bill being debated in Louisiana now too. Apparently, the first draft of the bill had language about suppression of evolution, while the second draft is more aimed at establishing critical thinking skills in students. I couldn’t agree more with the direction this bill has taken. We shouldn’t censor evolution, censorship is what the Dawkinsists do. We need to expand the knowledge base of our students and teach them to think about the pros and cons of scientific theories and not just dogma.
