Knoxville Father Wants Biology Book Banned

This is (I gather) the reason he wants the book banned.

Local papers report Zimmerman pulls a quote from page 319 in the book, Asking About Life, where creationism is described as, “the biblical myth that the universe was created by the Judeo-Christian God in 7 days.”

Bzzzt - Wrong, it took him 6 days, he rested on the 7th

Goodness. I’m no fan of teaching religious principles in school but the wording in the text does seem rather harsh and unnecessary. It really does seem like the authors went out of their way to take a shot at “the Judeo-Christian God”. But I’d double-check that “quote” and make sure that’s actually what the text book says.
