Textbook Disclaimer Stickers

Recently, the Cobb County School district in Georgia required all textbooks with reference to evolution to include the following text:

"This textbook contains material on evolution. Evolution is a theory, not a fact, regarding the origin of living things. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered."

Check out this link for a few other stickers that should probably be included in textbooks as well:)

Umm, did these people read what they wrote? Maybe they should practice what they write and use that when putting any sort of religious crap in a "textbook". I think they should replace the word evolution with the word religion.
