Kansas Dept. of Education Still Having Trouble With That Separation-of-Church-and-State-Thingy

The Kansas Department of Education is once again hearing silly arguments about changing the science curriculum to include a few evolution-questioning, pro-creationist tidbits.

My favorite ons is:
A 12th-grade proposal that offers a more complete description of biological evolution, the evidence that supports it and the scientific controversy that surrounds it.

Scientific controversy about evolution??? I'm pretty sure there's not scientific controversy over evolution. I'm pretty sure it's widely accepted in the scientific community. I'm only in second grade, and even I know that.
