Last August, two years in public schools in Kansas, they decided not to teach Darwin's theory of evolution and eliminated the issue of the program. Consequently, they only explained creationist theory. That is, that all species arose suddenly and with their present characteristics, and the creator was God, of course. Now, however, they have again included the subject in the curriculum, with seven votes in favor and three against.

It seems that the previous decision was not binding and most centers ignored it. Members of the Society for the Science of Creation have stated that the decision is a "religious battle" and that it is due to the presence of pseudo-Christians and atheists in command.
