The Bunny Is Back
A few years back, I had an icon that was adapted by a friend of mine from a picture she found on one of those cheesy humor websites. I used said icon for posts about things that were so absurd, ridiculous, idiotic, or downright bat-shit crazy (or all of the above) that I didn't even know what else to say about the item. Lately, I thought about bringing back that icon. And then, while innocently browsing the news tonight, just minding my own business, I stumbled across the perfect item for the return of my old icon. So the bunny is officially back.
And jajy1979? There was a reason that I told you I really do not want to know what the hell is going on in your state legislature.
Tenn. bill on evolution and teaching to become law
By LUCAS L. JOHNSON II | Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Tennesee's Republican governor says he will let a bill become law effective April 20 that protects teachers who allow students in their classrooms to criticize evolution and other scientific theories, such as global warming.
Gov. Bill Haslam had said previously he would probably sign the bill. On Tuesday, he disclosed he would let the law take effect without his signature, saying he believes the legislation doesn't change scientific standards currently taught in Tennessee's public schools.
Tennessee was the state where the nation's first big legal battle over evolution was fought nearly 90 years ago.
Supporters say the legislation is intended to help students think critically. *
