A sad tale of woe can be found in this well written article about what it’s like to be a science teacher in Arkansas.  Learn how science teachers, in order to avoid controversy (and keep their jobs) are deciding to skip topics like evolution, and the age of the earth, or rocks etc.

It’s pretty sad; it’s like reading about a 3rd world country.

Imagine kids in Arkansas graduating from high school, trying to get a science or biology scholarship without ever having heard of Evolution, Ordovician rocks, or the Pleistocene epoch. They’ll be laughed right out of their entrance exams as they describe “intelligent duh-sign” and human coexistence with dinosaurs.
