Here in TN, they have taken steps though new legislation to
allow creationism back into the classroom. This law turns the clock back
nearly 100 years here in the seemingly unprogressive South and is simply
embarrassing. There is no argument against the Theory of Evolution other than
that of religious doctrine. The Monkey Law only opens the door for fanatic
Christianity to creep its way back into our classrooms. You can see my visual
response as a Tennessean to this absurd law on my artist’s blog at

with some evolutionary art and a little bit of simple logic.
