>>>They want that to be a State level choice, and then the Red states can water down science standards as they desire. Unfortunately, no matter how many people vote for it, creationism is not science, and evolution is not wrong. <<<

I like local school board control. School Boards generally want to compete with other districts for raising standards not lowering them. I can't imagine many wanting to do otherwise.

I have never heard one single Republican suggest watering down science standards. Many like the idea of Charter schools where science standards can be watered up.

I don't know any conservatives who deny adaptation or survival of the fittest. If they poo poo the theoretical part how much skin is that off your nose, especially if it is taking place in a remote small town.

If someone wants to teach what they perceive to be the merits of creationism, like they do in religious schools, how does that cause harm?
