<strong>Teresa</strong> <strong>Plenge</strong> Selman v. Cobb County School District, et al July 1, 2003<br />
1 Q You don't think that it waters down<br />
2 the County's education about evolution --<br />
3 A No.<br />
4 Q -- to highlight that evolution is a<br />
5 theory, not a fact, and this particular theory<br />
6 should be closely scrutinized? You don't think<br />
7 that waters down the value <strong>of</strong> the science<br />
8 education about evolution?<br />
9 A No.<br />
10 Q Why doesn't it?<br />
11 A Because we are still required to<br />
12 teach the QCCs and that's what gets taught.<br />
13 Q Are you familiar with the<br />
14 Copernican theory <strong>of</strong> planet rotation?<br />
15 A No.<br />
16 Q It's a theory that says that<br />
17 contrary to what was popular belief at that<br />
18 time, that, in fact, the earth travels around<br />
19 the sun. You are familiar with that theory?<br />
20 A Uh-huh (affirmative).<br />
21 Q And to the best <strong>of</strong> your knowledge,<br />
22 the Cobb School Board doesn't require there to<br />
23 be any statement to the contrary or affecting<br />
24 the Copernican theory, is there?<br />
25 A Not specifically that theory, no.<br />
