Georgia considers banning 'evolution'
Friday, January 30, 2004 Posted: 10:11 AM EST (1511 GMT)

ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) -- The state's school superintendent has proposed striking the word evolution from Georgia's science curriculum and replacing it with the phrase "biological changes over time."

The change is included in more than 800 pages of draft revisions to Georgia's curriculum that have been posted by the Department of Education on its Web site. The middle and high school standards are expected to be voted on by the state Board of Education in May, after public feedback.

Superintendent Kathy Cox said the concept of evolution would still be taught under the proposal, but the word would not be used. The proposal would not require schools to buy new textbooks omitting the word evolution and would not prevent teachers from using it.

Cox repeatedly referred to evolution as a "buzzword" Thursday and said the ban was proposed, in part, to alleviate pressure on teachers in socially conservative areas where parents object to its teaching.

"If teachers across this state, parents across this state say, 'This is not what we want,' then we'll change it," said Cox, a Republican elected in 2002.

Educators and legislators criticized the proposal, saying science teachers understand the theories behind evolution and how to teach them.

"Here we are, saying we have to improve standards and improve education, and we're just throwing a bone to the conservatives with total disregard to what scientists say," said state Rep. Bob Holmes, a Democrat.

Social conservatives who prefer religious creation to be taught instead of evolution criticized the proposal as well.

"If you're teaching the concept without the word, what's the point?" said Rep. Bobby Franklin, a Republican. "It's stupid. It's like teaching gravity without using the word gravity."

With damned few exceptions, yes. Most people in Georgia are that ignorant.

I'm scarred for life, for having had to live there for three years.

People in the South just recently started wearing shoes and walking upright.

They don't believe in evolution because they're too close to it.

Apparently, they don't much care for integration, either.

The year we left, two counties had FINALLY integrated their proms and there were plenty of folks who were up in arms about THAT.

When 9/11 happened....one person was heard to say:

Even though they was Yankees, even THEY didn't deserve that.

Integration, not bad schools, is probably the real reason why some right wingers choose home schooling.

I can't believe how some folks are that stubborn .... even through several generations. That's unbelievable to me.

It would be like having that last two numbers of your address be different in an address that was millions of digits long. Genetically, you're the next door neighbor.

The county where we lived ranked as the worst school district in the country.

The army loved this county, because the kids were fodder for them.

The drop out rate was 1 in ten.

Oh, I've got stories....

What's interesting is how cosmopolitan Atlanta is..which is why this surprises me...

Most Georgians don't consider Atlanta to be part of the South.

Thank you for saying that. There isn't anything else in Georgia other than Atlanta. I try not to go outside the perimeter unless I'm on a plane. Atlanta is a great city, but go 30 miles away and it's a totally different place.

Everyone knows people from the South evolved from apes.

And everyone knows that apes evolved from people in the North.

I guess I shouldn't have used your address analogy.
