Criacionismo ou evolução das espécies?
Num reportagem na RTN que reproduzia um programa norte-americano, um professor de Geologia explicava indignado a situação no Estado do Arkansas: é como se à pergunta do aluno sobre como apareceu o Grand Canyon no Colorado o professor esclarecesse: bem, segundo uns foi o resultado da evolução milenar da Terra, segundo outros foi uma decisão do feiticeiro de Oz.
"The Kansas Board of Education’s recent decision to remove evolution from the state science standards has once again brought the debate about creationism into the national spotlight."
"What Happened in Kansas?Kansas State Science Standards Revisions:In August 1999, the Kansas State Board of Education voted 6-4 in favor of state science standards from which several topics, including virtually all references to evolution, had been deleted."
"School boards in Arizona, Alabama, Illinois, New Mexico, Texas and Nebraska have tried to remove evolution from the state standards or modify its teaching in the past few years. 4"
"More recent are the increasingly sophisticated strategies that creationists use in an effort to inject their ideas into public school science curricula. These strategies rely more on presenting evolution and creationism as two equally plausible, although competing scientific theories that should be included in the curriculum rather than on banning evolution outright."
