Last week, a U.S. district judge ordered a Georgia school district to remove stickers reading, "Evolution is a theory, not a fact" from its textbooks. What do you think?

"The thing is, they're right. Evolution is nothing more than a well-supported, predictive, scientifically rigorous theory."

Old Man

Carlton Fuller,
Teacher
"If you don't believe in creationism, then how do you explain the fact that I do, smart guy?"

Melanie Burton,
Systems Analyst
"Good. Now could New York please take the sticker off my literature textbook that says Surrealism is just a school of thought often in conflict with Abstractism?"

Old Woman

Susan McKinney,
Painter
"Maybe now a judge will press Georgia schools to remove the 'Mr. Yuk' stickers from books by black authors."

Young Man

Danny Hale,
Plumber
"Man, I gotta get one of those stickers for my guitar case. That'd be awesome."

Black Man

Brad Dawson,

"I hope they replaced the old stickers with new ones that read, 'Do not burn.'"
