If you want your kids to become stupider and learn this type of stuff, sent them to catholic school or something, where they have no problem teaching you psuedoscience. Leave the public schools alone, its bad enough when we go to school we have to learn from textbooks that are either completly wrong, or just full of half truths and lies. We dont need to add more crap like that to the schools. And to the parents in Kansas shame on you for not giving your kids a chance to learn and make their own dissicions. ITs bad enough you force, and black mail your children into believing what you believe, but now you want to make sure the job is complete and completely screw these kids up by teaching them silly superstions in school.
If you want you child to learn about Intelligent Design, teach him or her yourself, dont ask or make the schools teach something which most people agree is way off base. ITs like asking your school to teach that the sun revolves around the earth because that is what the chuch said hundreds years ago or some crap. If you want to teach your child that, then do it, but dont make everyone elses child as dumb as you are, by forcing this in to the school. Next they are going to want to teach that snakes talk, dragons exist, and Giants walked the earth, all because it said it somewhere in the bible.
