So you know, I have lived in Kansas all of my young life.
Our Board of Education has seen fit in the past to decrease the importance of evolutionary theory as a part of state science standards. The debate has gone back and forth for several years now. The science standards change as often as the board's makeup does.
What's interesting to me is that many Kansans feel we should drop all this and do what everyone else is doing so that we can fit in and others won't laugh at us.
My first question is this, do any of you outside of Kansas even know that this is going on here? If so, please include where you are.
Second, is it so bad to not be normal? "Normal" people don't have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ to save them. "Normal" people, in America anyway, spend more than they can afford to.....etc. Should fitting in and being normal ever motivate our actions?
