In the beginning God
"A story at the BBC explains how the UK government has put an extra
clause into a funding bill to ensure that any new 'free schools'
(independent schools run by groups of parents or organizations, but
publicly-funded) must teach evolution rather than creationism or potentially lose their funding.
'The new rules state that from 2013, all free schools in England must
teach evolution as a 'comprehensive and coherent scientific theory.' The
move follows scientists's concerns that free schools run by
creationists might avoid teaching evolution. Sir Paul Nurse, president
of the Royal Society, said it was 'delighted.' Sir Paul told BBC News
the previous rules on free schools and the teaching of evolution versus
creationism had been 'not tight enough.'"
