100. I was referring to the intended purpose of education boards.
Not what the Kansas BOE has done re: intelligent design.

Here is your quote:

His quote was in response to one made by an evolutionist.

People might be offended by Dr. Leakey's quote.

So they gave equal time to creation.

Just like Kansas.


I was addressing the point you made here. You imply that the equal time concept of Starbucks and the Kansas BOE are similar in terms of impact.

Starbucks is not part of some elaborate scheme to evangelize all non-believers. They make overpriced coffee, that's it. This quote thing is just another PR stunt. And I think they could do a lot worse than Rick Warren. Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, etc. come to mind.
