"When told this, Bush responded: "Well, that's different from what the (education) commissioner told me and what he's said publicly. I like what we have right now. And I don't think there needs to be any changes. I don't think we need to restrict discussion, but it doesn't need to be required, either."

But seriously, that some conservatives are still pushing creationist superstitions 80 years after the Scopes trial is an embarrassment. It is not, repeat, not science.
I appreciate that historically too many individuals who understood that a scientific approach and reason support evolution also were Leftists and often value relativists, their own form of irrational superstition. But science, objective moral values and individual liberty all go together.
Indeed, it's now the postmodernist Left that is joining the extreme creationists in rejecting the scientific method, though in the case of the former it is because this approach is supposedly the product of tyrannical white men. Sorry creationists and Leftist, the truth is objective, independent of your superstitions.
