The bill sets a statewide standard that students cannot be punished for professing beliefs with which their professors disagree. Professors would also be advised to teach alternative “serious academic theories” that may disagree with their personal views.

A well rounded education? Wow. What a concept!
Creationism is referred to as a "theory", but so is evolution. Heck, the evolution theory was adopted from the Chinese egg legend, where a big egg exploded, and a gooey fish type lizard popped out and grew into a man. They got their legend from examining a human fetus. First it looks like a fish, then a lizard, then a monkey, and then a man.
Evolutionists say they have the skeletal remains of an evolving man, but they're missing one link. Somehow, they want us to believe an ape creature can change it's entire cerebral and spinal column from that of an ape to that of a bear in one quick "missing" jump and become a completely new creature - ta da! A man! Sheesh! .

Do you even have a shred of evidence for your claims?

Just about everything we learn in science is considered a theory. Very few notions that we hold to be true have been proven beyond a doubt, or without some exception we cannot explain. Evolution is one such theory, but it is a scientific theory based on scientific evidence based on a scientific process, which is why it is taught in science classes along with other scientific theories. Creationism or ID is vertainly welcome in other classes, but not science.

Creationism is referred to as a "theory", but only by people that don't understand the word "theory". Creationism is neither testable, nor falsifiable, and as such it is not a theory. It is a belief.

Somehow, they want us to believe an ape creature can change it's entire cerebral and spinal column from that of an ape to that of a bear...

BWAHAHAHA! I have to stop at this point! Gotta wipe the coffee off of my screen!

And in the name of academic freedom, all college students should be taught this, correct?
