In its "Rationale of the State Board
for Adopting these Science Curriculum
Standards," the Science Hearings Committee also stressed "that
the Science
Curriculum Standards do not include the theory of Intelligent Design. The Board does

Kansas is whether to teach students the scientific
evidence for and against
Darwin's theory, not whether to teach them alternative theories.yoruba give

West praised the Science Hearings Committee for making clear that it was
basing its new draft of
the science standards on science, not religion.
The Committee noted that it was "aware that the
study and discussion of
the origin and development of life may raise deep personal and philosophical
questions for many people on all sides of the debate. But as interesting as
these personal questions
may be, the personal questions are not covered by
these curriculum standards nor are they the basis
for the Board's actions in
this area.
