Nah, next up is Dover. Kansas won't do anything actionable until mid-June at the earliest. The lawsuits are already in progress in Pennsylvania. And there's an appeal in progress in Georgia, too, so it's not yet over.

The worst part is they still have it all wrong, the stickers say evolution is a theory about life origins when it should be defined as the process of modifing life forms, or something to that extent. Apparently we still need to explain that evolution did not cause the big bang, unless of course our universe is part of some life form that evolves.

Many people will continue to get that part wrong, BPS, and won't care to get it right. See, for example, this write-up on Rubinstein, who thinks that evolution might be demonstrated by a cat giving birth to racoons.

Saw that one. I was impressed at how much it reads like Rubinstein has been studying under Hovind.

I no longer worry about how it will all come out. I only wonder where this nonsense will, like a foundered mule in new harness, crop up next.
