Back in 2009 the State Board of Education (SBOE) in Texas tried to cut Darwinian evolution from state textbooks. These new social studies books will be voted on in November by the SBOE. The Houston Press has compiled a list of 10 crazy things they are proposing to include in the textbooks. The full list is located here . Here is some of the crazy things being considered from that list:
"6. Nothing good has happened in society since 1927.
4. The Native Americans hung out with the Pilgrims and the whole things turned out just fine for Squanto and his buddies.
2. The whole segregation thing wasn't that big of a deal"
I can't even begin to say how ridiculous some of these are. Read the article and make your own conclusions.
**I did not write the list, it's from the Houston Press.**
