So now that this non-confidence business is dead, let's get back to some discussion!

I also happen to believe this bill is unconstitutional as it suppresses teachers' freedom to speak truthfully on certain topics.

I myself was questioning the constitutionality on this bill, and was hoping Ben could elaborate on his reasoning for it.

I mean why stop at this step? Just go full on Biblical and require schools to teach creationism and the punishment for teaching anything else be stoning?

So no one is on board with the stoning?

well, since the discussion has dwindled to me trolling, I'm going to go ahead and call for a 24 hour final vote.

I'm willing to open the floor back up for debate to give Ben the chance to argue his reasoning for the bill and to allow for real discussion on the contents.

And just to throw this out again, are we sure we don't want to include stoning?

Why outright ban the concept? I can see how using your argument can apply to not teaching it in science classes, but would you be fine with allowing it in history courses? Flat earth theory is still taught in history, but is not something taught in science.

Also why make this something a concern that regional legislature takes on? Wouldn't you say it is something that would be best left to the school districts to decide?

Since it appears that no one else has anything to add, I'm going to go ahead and bring this to a 48 hour final vote.

I know this whole thing absolutely nothing to do with me, but I can just say that I don't understand the naming of this bill at all.

Literally everyone's reaction.
