Risking the kind of nationwide ridicule it faced six years ago, the Kansas Board of Education approved new public-school science standards Tuesday that cast doubt on the theory of evolution.
The 6-4 vote was a victory for ``intelligent design'' advocates who helped draft the standards. Intelligent design holds that the universe is so complex that it must have been created by a higher power.
Critics of the new language charged that it was an attempt to inject God and creationism into public schools in violation of the separation of church and state.
All six of those who voted for the new standards were Republicans. Two Republicans and two Democrats voted no.
``This is a sad day. We're becoming a laughingstock of not only the nation, but of the world, and I hate that,'' said board member Janet Waugh, a Kansas City Democrat.
Janet Waugh is right, you are laughingstocks. Hah hah hah.
Why is it so important to create stupid children? Are you planning to swindle them in a crooked land deal when they are older? Why would you help dumb down the next generation to run our country? I just don't get it.
Kansas, where brain cells go to die!
