Utah: Buttars Dazzles Them With Science

KUTV in Salt Lake City reports that the "Utah Senate gave its first blessing Friday to a bill that would make schools teach that evolution is not the only scientific theory about the origins of humans.

"Sponsored by Sen. Chris Buttars, R-West Jordan, the bill was passed by a 17-12 vote after nearly an hour of debate. The bill needs one more affirmative Senate vote before moving on to the House for consideration.

"Buttars amended his own bill, inserting the word 'scientific' in several places to clear up what he said were misperceptions that he was trying to push religion into public schools."
