Darwin v. Moses

A trial opened Monday over whether a warning sticker in suburban Atlanta biology textbooks that says evolution is "a theory, not a fact'' violates the separation of church and state by promoting religion.

The case is one of several battles that have been waged in recent years in the Bible Belt over what role evolution should play in science books.

Excuse me, but most of modern science is theory. Since when has anybody taught evolution as definitive proven fact? It is simply the theory with the most plausible explanation at this moment. I just don't know how to react to this.
