Subtext
Ask yourself this: why do science teachers need to be granted-- as they recently were in Ouachita Parish down in Louisiana -- the academic freedom to teach "scientific evidence" in science classes? Isn't that what science teachers do?
The Bayou Buzz has seen through the transparently disingenuous new policy: "The real agenda is only revealed in the policy’s sub-text, which allows the religious theory of ‘intelligent design’ to be taught as scientific theory in science classes."
The Bayou Buzz isn't fooled either by a flimsy justification inserted into the Ouachita School Board’s resolution which seeks support from Santorum Amendment, "while entirely omitting the first sentence which clearly opposes the teaching of 'religious or philosophical claims that are made in the name of science.'"
