Stardate 20011109.1205 (On Screen): This piece of idiocy passes the horse-laugh test but doesn't pass the "God-dammit, not again!" test. The sovereign state of Alabama requires that all biology textbooks have a sticker attached which warns that evolution is a "controversial theory".
Controversy is another one of those words which means different things to different people. Evolution isn't controversial among scientists; it's only controversial among religious zealots, and that has nothing whatever to do with its scientific validity. The battle against religious fundamentalism is a world-wide and never ending one.
