Meanwhile, in Florida...
NBC2 in Florida reports that a bill has been promoted in the legislature that would allow more “academic freedom” in teaching controversial subjects. From Dave Elias:
A new bill introduced by a Southwest Florida lawmaker could give people outside the state a say in your child’s education. The bill would allow school districts options when it comes to teaching evolution and climate change. It could open the door to creationism being taught in public schools. This bill is designed to give students options in the classroom.
Some say it goes too far. It even gives visitors paying sales tax a say.
Evolution versus creationism has been an ongoing debate in Florida’s public schools.
“I think people should be given options on different things like that,” said Beverly Horner of Fort Myers. State Representative Byron Donalds of Collier County feels the same way. “It is important that the public is aware of what is actually in the classroom, and if there are objections to what is in the classroom, we have a process that allows for them to be remedied,” he said.
Donalds further said his bill would allow a balanced and non-inflamatory viewpoint on issues like evolution. “To me, those are code words for saying I don’t like evolution,” said Brandon Haught of Citizens for Science.
Haught feels topics like climate change, which are currently taught in Florida classrooms, are in trouble. “They’re trying to put some unscientific ideas into the science classroom,” Haught said.
Given the massive, overwhelming evidence for evolution, what would a “balanced” viewpoint look like? Haught is correct. They are trying to put unscientific views into the science classroom. The problem is that they do not have the basic knowledge to understand that they are unscientific. This is why lawmakers ought to stay out of the science classroom.
