Pharyngula spoke out about Oklahoma State Representative Sally Kern. (More here.)
Kerns is the sponsor of Oklahoma House Bill 2211, the "Religious Viewpoints Antidiscrimination Act". You can tell from the title what it is: a bill that would privilege religious opinions over scientific information in public school classrooms.
The House bill passed, so it's going to the Senate. If you live in Oklahoma, call your State Senator and tell them to oppose this bill that waters down science education.

Wow. I figured Oklahoma to be a little further out of the South than this one. Heck, even the Florida Academic Freedom shocked me.
