Biology equals evolution. Evolution equals biology. They're the exact same thing. Remove evolution from biology and there's nothing left that's interesting. If you love collecting stamps you might like biology without the foundation of biology, which is of course evolution.
Back in 1925 there was the
Scopes Trial in Tennessee. A biology teacher was accused of teaching biology in his biology classroom and he was found guilty.
That was 86 years ago, almost a century. Have Christians made any progress towards escaping from the Dark Ages yet?
No.
For example there was an
excellent biology teacher in Georgia who had the nerve to teach biology in her biology classroom, despite constant harassment and threats from Christian assholes including the parents of her students and including the school administration. She was alone fighting against idiots, assholes, and uneducated morons. What settled the matter was she showed the Christian retards the Georgia science standards for public schools which required biology teachers to teach biology, also known as evolution.
Those standards were almost destroyed by another uneducated moron who was the education superintendent of Georgia. She announced that she would remove evolution from the science standards because it was too divisive an issue. Translated that means she tried to destroy science education for all students to avoid upsetting Georgia's uneducated morons, also known as Christian tards.
I thought schools existed for students, and not for religious cults. Fortunately the education superintendent, a cowardly stupid asshole, was told she would not be allowed to get away with destroying science education to accommodate her dead Jeebus.
It has been 86 years since the Scopes trial and Christians are still at war against science education. They are enemies of America, equal to terrorists, and guilty of treason.
Should America let stupid assholes make decisions about science curriculums? No of course not, but that's exactly what's been going on and it will never stop until the Christian Death Cult is eradicated.

Every young American will be a student in at least one science class and that branch of science is biology. For many students this is their last chance to get excited about science. If they're lucky enough to get an excellent biology teacher who refuses to be intimidated by Christian scum, she will make evolution a major part of every biology lesson and the students will quickly learn how to love science because there's nothing more interesting than the history of life.
Unfortunately there is very little chance of getting a science teacher who knows what she's doing. In some states (the Bible Belt of the Deep South) it's more likely the science teacher will be a science denier, a Christian who prefers magic instead of science. These disgusting incompetent know-nothing biology teachers should be fired and publicly humiliated but nobody complains. In fact the students who have already been brainwashed to fear evolutionary biology are pleased to find out their teacher is not interested in teaching them anything. They graduate from high school thinking science is boring and they learn nothing about it.
America needs a president who says "Enough is enough. No more dumbing down science education and no more sucking up to religious cults." He or she would demand and provide money for the best science teachers for all students, including students in America's small towns which are infested with Christians at war against science education.
If Rick Perry is elected to be our president the exact opposite will happen. He has a long history of doing everything possible to destroy science education in Texas and he can be expected to do the same thing for the entire country.
Obama, if he is reelected, could do something about America's disgraceful science education and the equally disgraceful Christian war against it. But I doubt he will do anything. He prefers to pretend to be religious, so he will be reluctant to fight against America's religious assholes.
If only I could come back in one century to see if any progress has been made. Will America wake up and do something to save itself or will America become a backward theocracy like Iran?

The theory of evolution is a staggeringly beautiful and rather clever concept that aims to describe how animals, plants, bacteria and all other living things have adapted, and continue to adapt, to their surroundings. The theory allows mankind to perceive life's history down the eons and understand how and why all living things came to be.
Evolution is the grand unifying theory of biology. It is a solid core running through all modern research from molecular biology to genomics to ecology. Where once biology was a disjointed group of subjects whose main role seemed to be just to classify life into neat categories, it is now at the forefront of scientific research. Indeed, the study of heredity - genetics - is said to be leading mankind into a biotechnological golden age with ever-more potent pharmaceuticals, cleaner fuels and improved crops.

Darwin’s great insight that the vast diversity of life on earth arose over time from a common ancestor revolutionized scientific understanding, with substantial benefit to our economy and our well being. Today, evolutionary principles are the foundation of all of modern biology and have led to major advances in fields as diverse as molecular biology, developmental biology, genetics, behavior, and paleontology. Understanding evolution also allows us to identify genes underlying human illness, combat infectious diseases, mitigate impacts of invasive species, and control pathogens and pests of our crops and livestock.

From the National Academy of Sciences
The concept of biological evolution is one of the most important ideas ever generated by the application of scientific methods to the natural world. The evolution of all the organisms that live on Earth today from ancestors that lived in the past is at the core of genetics, biochemistry, neurobiology, physiology, ecology, and other biological disciplines. It helps to explain the emergence of new infectious diseases, the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, the agricultural relationships among wild and domestic plants and animals, the composition of Earth's atmosphere, the molecular machinery of the cell, the similarities between human beings and other primates, and countless other features of the biological and physical world. As the great geneticist and evolutionist Theodosius Dobzhansky wrote in 1973, ‘Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution.’
