YOu have no say in what parents want to teach their children. Creationists really don't care what YOU or any other darwinian elitist thinks should be in those textbooks in Texas. Do you live in Texas? Who do you think you are?

At least I live in a specific state! There's no real question that Discovery Institute--if you don't know who they are, you didn't read the lead article--will target other states sooner or later.

I'm someone who objects to the dumbing down of science education in this country. I'm someone who has read Discovery Institute materials before and found them utterly bogus. Witness this paper on the Cambrian. An allegedly secular movement in science should not be borrowing creationist pamphlet arguments and creationist pamphlet standards of scholarship.

You can object all you want, you still have no authority over anyone's children but your own. By the way, you are too late - the schools are already dumbed down.
