They'll Come for the Globes Next

In West Virginia, we have a saying: "thank God for Mississippi." The point being, when WV is at the very bottom of damn near every national statistic, we can sometimes count on Mississippi do be even worse. Well, now, we can say, "thank God for Georgia." The educational powers that be in the Peach State have removed the word "evolution" from the state's educational guidelines. The guidelines also streamline biology requirements to not emphasize evolution. Presumably, the Biblical theory that the Earth is flat will lead to the removal of globes from the schools in the near future. At least in WV, we try to teach science correctly!
