Darwinist Calls Oklahoma Academic Freedom Act "Code Language"

Alan Leshner, head of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, is describing the proposed Academic Freedom Act in Oklahoma as "code language ... to promote a narrow religious agenda." Lawrence Selden responds:

So I raise this question: Is "encourag[ing] critical thinking by exposing students to all sides of the scientific debate about evolution" really just "code language" for "promot[ing] a narrow religious agenda"? It seems to me that looking at the alleged "code language" that is being "injected" into Oklahoma law is the best way to decide.

Selden's full response is here.
