A suburban Atlanta school board Thursday night voted unanimously to allow
teachers to introduce students to different views about the origins of life.
The Cobb County Board of Education, the state's second-largest school board,
approved the policy change after limited discussion, calling it a "necessary
element of providing a balanced education."

The board's vote drew cheers from some and expressions of dismay from others
in the packed meeting room.

"This supposed victory [by proponents of alternate theories] was shallow,
very shallow," said Jeffrey Selman. Selman and other opponents believe the
new policy is a step toward introducing religion -- in particular,
creationism -- in public schools. "We're going to be watching this very
closely."
