The only complaint I've got with it, is the waste of tax money it takes to slap that sticker inside the front cover of each and every science textbook in the county.

As a science teacher, my biggest complaint with it is that it misrepresents the scientific meaning of theory, thereby demonstrating that the Cobb County school board doesn't know the difference between a theory and a hypothesis, and further ensuring that Cobb County students won't either.

True. But I think the part that bothers me the most is:

Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things.
