Tennessee Law Will Allow Teachers to Challenge Climate Science
Source: Scientific American
Read more: http://www.scientificamerican.com/ar...limate-scienceTennessee soon will have a law granting public school teachers the right to challenge climate science in their classrooms.
Gov. Bill Haslam (R) of Tennessee declined to act on a measure yesterday that would formally allow teachers to challenge "the teaching of some scientific subjects," including global warming, evolution and human cloning. Without the governor's signature, the bill becomes law by default later this month.
"The bill received strong bipartisan support, passing the House and Senate by a three-to-one margin, but good legislation should bring clarity and not confusion," Haslam said in a statement. "My concern is that this bill has not met this objective."
Haslam said he thought that the bill would not change the already-established curriculum in the state's public schools.
Science is over-rated anyway

Like I said. Good. Consensus is not science.
Seriously?
The verdict isn't out yet. So far, AGW seems to be minimal and nothing more than an agenda.
Do you like your kids to be taught agendas that you don't believe in?
Sorry, the fact that two hydrogen molecules combine with one oxygen molecule to form water isn't an agenda. The fact that C14 decays at a specific measurable rate and proves that fossils are older than the bible is not an agenda. Those are facts.

Tennessee senate warns hand-holding is a 'gateway sexual activity'
"Tennessee senators approved an update to the state's abstinence-based sex education law that includes warnings against "gateway sexual activity."
In a new family life instructions bill, holding hands and kissing could be considered gateways to sex."

Apparently, challenging such findings was already allowed.
What's good about this law, again?
