It's not all about evolution...

The Kansas State school board is wrestling with another issue too. Sex ed. Currently, students take sex ed unless their parents specifically ask for them to opt out. There's a movement to switch to a system where no one takes it unless their parents specifically opt them in. The board voted 5-5 on the issue today, whee. I expect that the fallout from their next move on evolution is likely to change the board's composition enough to result in a decisive vote on sex ed next time they take it up, one way or another.

All in all, I'm glad I'm not raising a kid in this state. :/
