A couple of developments that some folks here will want to know about:

1. A stealth campaign by Republican presidential front-runner Mike
Huckabee to win support from evangelicals by appearing in a video in which
martial arts guy Chuck Norris advocates use of the (Protestant, I assume)
Bible as a textbook in U.S. public schools.

2. Decision by Texas Advisory Council recommending approval of a master's
degree in Science Education to be offered by the Institute for Creation
Research.
