“Last year, Louisiana passed the Louisiana Science Education Act, a law that many scientists and educators said was a thinly veiled attempt to allow creationism and its variants into the science classroom. On Tuesday, the state’s Board of Elementary and Secondary Education adopted a policy that sharpens those fears,”

If evolution were true why are they so fearful?

Say some group came in and wanted to undermine your child’s education by foisting ignorance instead of facts. Might you not be afraid of the consequences of that?
