The Truth

Palin Has Not Pushed Teaching Creation Science in Schools

The Associated Press fact checked and refutes this claim in their 9/3/2008 article, Palin has not pushed creation science as governor,

Palin said during her 2006 gubernatorial campaign that if she were elected, she would not push the state Board of Education to add creation-based alternatives to the state's required curriculum, or look for creationism advocates when she appointed board members.

Palin's children attend public schools and Palin has made no push to have creationism taught in them.

[she] reflects a hands-off attitude toward mixing government and religion by most Alaskans.
