Texas Science Curriculum Director Canned for Mentioning Evolution A Texas science education official forced to resign in October wasn’t — as her bosses inisted — fairly punished for insubordination. Her real crime: daring to tell people about a lecture critical of intelligent design. The Austin-American Statesman reported last week that science curriculum director Chris Comer’s ouster followed her circulation of an announcing an upcoming speech by Barbara Forrest, co-author of Creationism’s Trojan Horse: The Wedge of Intelligent Design and an expert witness in Kitzmiller v. Dover. That lawsuit was brought in 2005 by Dover, Pennsylvania parents upset with a school board’s decision to teach intelligent design — the belief that some phenomena can only be explained as divinely manufactured — as a scientific theory comparable to evolution.
