Utah Votes 'No' to Darwin's Critics

NewbieV writes "An article in Tuesday's New York Times notes that proposed legislation which would have 'stress[ed] that not all scientists agree on which theory regarding the origins of life, or the origins or present state of the human race, is correct;' has failed by a 46-28 vote in a Republican-controlled state House of Representatives."

    Seriously though, couldn't Taco just make this guy an editor or something, because he first posts waaayy too much. I think his energies would be better spent on proof reading article summaries rather than hovering over a constantly refreshing main-page.

    That might be true, however, we're all here on Slashdot voluntarily. We know the risks of reading posts. People that we just don't agree with are part of the deal. And if you can't deal with someone else's posts, you're under no obligation to read them nor are you under any obligation to be on Slashdot.

    Again, just my opinion that happens to differ from the Slashdot groupthink, which is a horrible thing, I know.
