Senator earmarks funds for Creationist group

According to this source, Senator David Vitter, R-La, earmarked $100k in a spending bill for a Lousiana Creationist group that has challenged the teaching of Darwinian Evolution in the public school system.

The bill specifies the payment is “to develop a plan to promote better science education.”

So, I’m wondering - shouldn’t the scientific community have a say in the creation theory that’s going to be introduced into the science curriculum?

The reason I bring this up is because the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster has a creation theory that also challenges Darwinian Evolution, and it is supported by more scientists than the one they’re planning to introduce. I guarantee it.

And we don’t need $100k. We’ll do it for free.

Purchase the Gospel

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
