Good grief! Where did you get that idea? The Creationists keep trying to
infiltrate the local boards of education, but they have not succeeded. The
state
education board of Kansas promoted Creationism for a few years, but then
dropped it. There have been several lawsuits, the most notable in Pennsylvania.
As
far as I know, Evolution is alive and well in all 50 states and the US
possessions.
