The fucking Christian idiots of Idiot America in Arizona have, as expected, dumbed down science education. Evolution makes American morons cry.

I never met a Christian who wasn't a stupid fucking asshole. To defend their primitive anti-science cult they try to destroy education for all students, including students who might actually want to learn something about how the world works.

Drop dead Christian scum.

Here is the news from Jerry Coyne's website. I suggest click the link to see the whole thing.

Evolution largely omitted and diluted from Arizona’s new education standards

Arizona has revised its educational standards for the first time in 15 years: these guidelines cover kindergarten through grade 12 (age about 18), and they’ve watered down the evolution standards, deleting several mentions of the “e-word” and severely qualifying others. You can see the reports below, at The Hill (click on screenshot), at the Arizona Republic, or at The Scientist.

I'm adding this to my list of favorite quotes:

Here Douglas is duplicitously impugning the entire theory of evolution by lying: by implying that “evolution has been an ongoing debate”, meaning “whether evolution is true.” This woman does not belong on any committee having to do with education, as she’s a lying weasel, and I don’t say that lightly.
