  Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction supports science

It appears that Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett accidentally got added to a list of speakers at the so-called Creation Evidence Expo. We are told that Bennett met with Rev. Fredrick Boyd, the conference's organizer about an unrelated issue and agreed to speak at Rev. Boyd's conference without knowing the topic.

Fortunately, when Mr. Bennett learned the nature of the conference he asked to have himself removed from the speaker's list. I am especially heartened by the last line of the article:

"Bennett, a former science teacher, agrees with the Indiana standards for science, which include the teaching of evolution, Savage [his spokesman] said."
