From his blog today
Georgia state school Superintendent Kathy Cox has decided that the word “evolution” is “…a buzzword that causes a lot of negative reaction” and should be replaced in all Georgia school curriculum with the phrase “biological changes over time”.
I agree. I hate buzzwords, don’t you? That’s why I think we should go one further and replace the phrase “slack-jawed backwater ignoramus” with the phrase “Kathy Cox”.
Just a suggestion.

I may be the only person who thinks they have half a brain who says this. My only concern is that creation isn’t taken out. I don’t care if evolution is in the schools. I don’t think creationism (creation? creationism? whatever) should be taken out, though. I wish you could teach it and take God out of it, although that’s impossible. Perhaps give some random bits of evidence that seem to show there is a young earth, or ask questions that proponents of evolution seem to either dismiss or can’t answer.
I don’t know which theory I believe more in. I’ll be honest. Since I already believe in God, creation ties everything together much more nicely, even from a scientific point of view, than evolution. This is especially so when you give the Noahaic flood much of the responsibility for making the world as it is today.
I’m not looking to convince anyone creation is the right way to go. I won’t win that argument. No one needs to tell me creation is stupid. They won’t win that argument. I just look to present another side of the coin for consideration. There is science behind creation, some of it very faulty and some of it quite interesting.
