Edward J. Larson - University Professor of History and Hugh & Hazel Darling Professor of Law, Pepperdine University
Oct 16, 2008 4:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.
From Dayton to Dover: A History of the Evolution Teaching Legal Controversy in America
Larson will explore the history of judicial interpretations of the Establishment Clause as applied to various specific efforts to limit the teaching of evolution in public school over the past century. The legal controversy will be set in its cultural and religious context to give a deeper appreciation of constitutional law and its practical application in everyday disputes over classroom instruction and public-school education.
@FollowingJesus247 yeah, let the kids learn that babies really do come to parents from stalks. Education isnt a democracy. Education is about preparing people for the world - not indoctrinating them into some batshit belief so that they end up only being able to associate with other batshit backwards people. Well done, before very long we end up in a society reminiscent of Afganhanstan
