My guess is that the existing Ts would sell out quick and they could print even more as a fund raising, thereby as well, giving the religious conservitives something more to think about. Count me in.

OK if they have to pull t-shirts because one religion objects to the picture, then they better ban meat from the cafeteria since it offends Hinduism. I bet we could come up with a lot more examples of things needing banning from the school because it bothers some faith community somewhere. Or does he think that evolution is a religion? “Pollitt said the district was required by law to remain neutral on religion.”

It's getting to the point where you can't even have a decent conversation about evolution or religion because they are contrevsial topics. Never mind the fact that Evolution being a science topic has as much to do with relgion as De-Evolution. That is man turning back into an ape, which is entirely more plausiable as it doesn't violate the law of causality. You know this is just getting nuts.

It's emblematic of the slow dumbing down of our society by reactionary religious zealots. The loss is not the few hundred dollars, it's the ability to openly discuss one of the cornerstones of modern biology. - Mitch While I appreciate the attempt to find a non-confrontational solution to this problem, I am more disturbed by the passive acquiescence to knee-jerk reactions by a small number of parents from a (very vocal) fringe of society.
