You've got to give social conservatives credit. They certainly know what the most important issues facing education are. In Kentucky, it's preserving the sanctity of B.C. and A.D:
The state school board on Wednesday scrapped a plan to teach
students about an alternative to the calendar terms B.C. and A.D.,
which carry religious overtones.The board, with six new
members appointed by Gov. Ernie Fletcher, reversed a decision two
months ago that had sparked a religious debate in Kentucky.
Just a thought…but maybe they'd like to address the fact that Kentucky's education typically ranks in the bottom half of the nation?
