DALLAS — An advisory council of university educators has recommended that Texas approve a master's degree program for science education offered by the Dallas-based Institute for Creation Research.

The council last week endorsed the proposal and submitted it for approval to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, which is expected to consider the proposal in January. Approval from the coordinating board would allow the program to operate while the institute seeks full accreditation.

The Dallas-based institute has asked for state approval to offer the online master's program to prepare teachers to "understand the universe within the integrating framework of Biblical creationism," according to the school's mission statement.



So now we know what the post-Dover strategy is.


Ignorance is preferable to error; and he is less remote from the truth who believes nothing, than he who believes what is wrong.
-- Thomas Jefferson

"god :: the last refuge of a man with no answers and no argument." - G. Carlin

The handmaiden of desperation; the opiate of despair; the illegible signpost on the road to perdition. ~~ da filth
