Senator Wants State to Answer Creation Question


State Sen. Raymond Finney is jealous of all the attention Stacey X has been getting. Sen. Finney is plotting to get the state's already embarrassingly inadequate schools to teach creationism or intelligent design.

Finney (R-Maryville) is making it the state's business to determine the answers to such weighty questions as "Is there a creator?" and "If yes, why are we afraid to teach creationism?"

For the answers, Finney is looking to the Tennessee State Education Department. And if the Rabidly Republican Senate signs on to Finney's resolution, any answers forthcoming will be official State of Tennessee answers.

Since these are hard questions, Finny is willing to give the state a whole year to come up with some answers.

Finny is a retired physician and we are thanking the goddess for that.

I have questions too. Since state schools are forbidden to access blogs, are they also forbidden to access websites pertaining to the state's lawmakers from la-la-land? And if not, why not?
