From the article:

Jindal also said he has no problem with creationism being taught in public schools as long as a local school board OK’s it. Since the state is committed to national academic standards, he said, as long as schools are teaching evolution they should be allowed to teach other theories as well. “What are we scared of?” he said. “Let (students) debate and learn … give them critical thinking skills.”

Those two sentences are so full of FAIL I don’t even know where to begin.

How about we give kids critical thinking skills by actually teaching them how to think critically? You know, like teaching them about the different types of logical fallacies—how to spot them, what makes them fallacious, etc.

Oh, I see—that’s what you meant, right Bobby? You meant you want schools to teach creationism so the teachers can point out the logical fallacies in religion, which is all about faith/belief, NOT science. And you’ll totally be okay with schools teaching different religions’ versions of creation so the kids can compare them, right? RIGHT?
