We have more than our fair share of Bible book stores as well as Private schools. In fact, just on our Pop Rock station about an hour ago was a Christian radio commercial discussing Jesus and why he died. But that's not to say that commercials for the adult entertainment stores don't come on at 10pm. We're a good balance.
As far as Kansas goes, they have the right to determine the curriculum to be taught within their schools. These individuals are elected by their populous, so if they have a problem with it, they can replace them in the next election. Probably won't though, since people tend to congregate in states which fit their needs, be it economical or political.
As far as Dinosaurs go . . . how do you know God didn't create them? Though I am Christian, there is more than enough evidence out there that evolution exist. Yet, that doesn't mean God didn't create the World AND allowed for the process of evolution to occur. This is why I have a problem with our school systems out here which ignore not only creationism as an alternative topic to be discussed with evolution, as well as the fact that Christianity is barely mentioned in our history texts which contain chapters dedicated to other religions.
You have to have balance and equality, especially when it comes to religion, since there is no way to disprove its existance . . . hence, the existance of "faith."
(And that's probably the most anyone will get out of me that might be considered "preaching." hahaha)
