Banning Richard Dawkins

[andrew_j_w]

Richard Dawkins is supposed to be giving a speech at the University of Oklahoma. A legislator has tried to stop him by banning him from the whole state!

Read the text of the proposal here.

Nice to know that free speech is alive and well in America...

Aren't the two parts of that proposal contradictory?"...published statements on the theory of evolution and opinion about those who do not believe in the theory are contrary and offensive to the views and opinions of most citizens of Oklahoma."
"...encourages the University of Oklahoma to engage in an open, dignified, and fair discussion of the Darwinian theory of evolution and all other scientific theories..."

Everyone is equal, just some are more equal than others :)
