From a 1996 video depicting a Dayton, Tennessee biology classroom. Dayton, by the way, was the site of the 1925 trail of John Scopes who was convicted of violated a state statute against the teaching of evolution. The intervening years should have put an end to this silliness. They haven't.
In fairness, this video is some 15 years old. I wish I believed that things have changed in the classrooms of our region over that span. I fear they have not.
Science teachers, do your jobs. If you can't, find another occupation.
for the most part completely unrelated, but still speaks on the questions valued by bible belt congregations:
