Nobel laureates urge rejecting science standards on evolution
Thirty eight Nobel Prize laureates led by Elie Wiesel urge the Kansas State Board of Education to reject proposed standards that portray evolution as a theory with serious questions. They argue evolution is the foundation of biology and DNA studies strengthen its role, while opposing intelligent design as untestable conjecture. The board plans a final vote later this year after external reviews.
