まーたテキサスが進化論教育にケチを付ける

AUSTIN, Texas ― Long-simmering ideological objections to teaching evolution in Texas boiled over at a late-night meeting, as
the Board of Education extended preliminary approval of new science textbooks but held up one biology tome because of
alleged factual errors.

With midnight looming, some board members on Thursday singled out a textbook by Pearson Education, one of America’s
largest publishers. They voiced questions about the book’s assertions on natural selection, noting that the theory of evolution
is only part of the explanation for how life developed on Earth.

After a lengthy - sometimes testy - debate, the board voted to have three of its members pick a trio of outside experts to
scrutinize the book.

If the issues can be resolved in four weeks, it will win approval. If not, the book will be rejected or returned to the board for
consideration at its January meeting.(以下略)

・「進化論は生命の発達を説明する上での一面に過ぎない」という理由でテキサス教育委員会がピアソン社の生物教科書の検定を拒否
・テキサス州での検定の行方はその市場の大きさから全米に影響を持ちうる
・ピアソン社らにはID論の記述を含むよう勧告がなされたが同社はそれを拒否
・同教育委員会は他に地球温暖化に関する断定的な記述を削除するようにも要求
