No Delay Permitted For Removal of Anti-Evolution Stickers

Last week (May 5), according to an AP Report, the 11th Circuit US Court of Appeals denied a request by the Cobb County, Georgia school board to permit it to delay complying with an order to remove evolution disclaimer stickers from school books. The school board requested the delay while an appeal was pending. The offending stickers, which the district court had ordered removed, read: "This textbook contains material on evolution. Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered."
