A look at Louisiana "Science" books.

Apparently now that Louisiana is allowing some of its state sponsored schools to "teach the controversy" below are the science textbooks now available to Louisiana students in some of these schools.

This courtesy of Buzzfeed:

 "Most evolutionists do not believe that that there was a great Flood. So they look for other ways to how fossils are formed." Easily one of the most ridiculous arguments ever put forth.

First of all scientists examine the evidence and then look for a cause. They don't already have a cause in mind and then look for the evidence to support it. No scientist that I am aware of ever thought of the Flood as the first possibility to explain the fossil record and then went about trying to disprove it.

They instead dated the strata that the fossils was trapped within and used that to date the fossil, a process that has only become more accurate over time.

I find it especially frustrating that the people who created this "textbook" assigned designations of "right" and "wrong," in this case clearly standing in for "moral and "immoral,"  to guide the student toward discerning which competing point of view is correct. Obviously with the increased stress of possibly choosing the one that is "against God."

There is NOTHING scientific in this approach.

It should be pointed out that not only does the Bible mention "Behemoths" it also discusses unicorns as if they were as prevalent and donkeys. So clearly when it comes to an accurate description of animal life is quite accurate don't you know.

In short if you currently living in Louisiana chances are your kid will NOT be the next Richard Dawkins, Carl Sagan, or Neil deGrasse Tyson.
