Satirical science textbook stickers: "Cory Doctorow:
Here's a series of stickers based on an anti-evolution textbook sticker from Georgia -- they get progressively more satirical, surfacing the anti-science, pro-superstition agenda behind 'Intelligent Design.'




Wording for the first disclaimer (top left) is taken verbatim from the sticker designed by the Cobb County School District ('A community with a passion for learning') in Georgia, which actually plagiarized Alabama's evolution disclaimer (view). Really, I'm not making any of this up. The other 14 are mildly educational variants that demonstrate the real meaning of a scientific 'theory' as well as the true motivations of the School Board members and their creationist supporters. Ideally, the above stickers will deter other districts from using textbook disclaimers as a way to undermine the teaching of evolution.
