A bible thumping Christian asshole wants to get a new law passed so students can learn about the magical creation fantasy in the bible instead of evolution. He will never get away with it but it shows how fucking stupid Alabama Christians are.

HB258
By Representative Hurst
RFD Education Policy
Rd 1 18-JAN-18

SYNOPSIS:

This bill would enable public school teachers who teach kindergarten through 12th grade to include, as a portion of instruction regarding the scientific origins of man and the Earth, instruction regarding the Biblical theory of creation, so long as evolution is also taught. This bill would further allow any teacher who desires to instruct students regarding the Biblical theory of creation to read passages from the Bible in class which he or she deems necessary to propel the instruction forward.

This bill would allow a student receiving instruction on both the Biblical theory of creation and evolution to make a determination as to which theory to accept. A student would be permitted credit on course exams if he or she chooses to adhere to the Biblical theory of creation instead of evolution and then answers exam questions according to that system of belief.
