Anyone care to voice an opinion on who this lady's probable political hero is?
“You know, Darwin’s theory was done in the mid-1800s and it’s never been proven,” she said. “So I’m wondering why we’re still teaching it.” 😕

When district staff who gave the presentation pointed out to Kern that Darwin’s theory of evolution has only gotten stronger as time has gone on, she wondered about those whose religious beliefs reject evolution. “How do you tell them?” Kern asked.
“This is science, and science doesn’t deal with a belief system,” Brainerd science teacher Craig Rezac shot back. “We deal with facts.”
“It doesn’t have to be a dilemma or a concern with someone to choose between evolution or Christianity,” he added. “You can actually embrace both.”
After the exchange made local news, Brainerd Public Schools Superintendent Laine Larson issued a statement saying that Kern’s comments “reflect her personal views and do not reflect the views of the Board of Education as a whole or the Brainerd Public School District.”
“The District’s approved science curriculum aligns with the MN State Standards,” the statement read, adding that “the Board of Education unanimously approved the Science and Biology curriculum at Monday’s meeting.”
