re: #109 jaunte

I don’t think it will be limited to science teachers. The effects will spill over. Standards will drop in all subjects, if the teacher want to make an argument that there is a ‘controversy.’ Especially if that controversy has any constituency the school board doesn’t want to deal with.

And that’s why I’ve repeatedly mentioned history class and Holocaust revisionism. This is very dangerous, because when we stop learning history, we doom ourselves to repeat those mistakes.

We start allowing teachers to be rogue agents in shaping curriculum, who knows what the hell will be going on in the schools next. This isn’t “academic freedom”, it academic anarchy!
