re: Texas education board approves curriculum that challenges evolution

It says that they are still teaching evolution theory. They are just adding curriculum offering different theories. That's a good thing. It forces students to be critical of all theories posted (which means poor AGW frickers are losing their grip).
The issue is not whether different theories different, opposing theories are being included. The issue is WHAT are the alternative theories? That's what I want to know and that's all I care about.
This may actually be a good thing for evolutionists (which I somewhat accept). If Texas is going to start teaching nonsense about the earth being only 6000 years old compared to other theories (supported by evidence) kids are going to learn really fast that some theories are bullshite and others may be questionable, but are far more likely.
In other words, if this is the Jesus Nazi right trying to indoctrinate, it could seriously backfire.

As long as they use that disclaimer, I have no problem with them mentioning evolution. Just be honest though.

No, it isn't. It severely hampers their education.
