Everyone say it together: Evolution is a THEORY.

I'm not arguing for Creationism here, I'm just saying that evolution has
yet to be scientifically proven.

I could hold the theory that we're all part of a cosmic bologna
sandwich. Doesn't make it anything more then a theory. (Actually, it
would be less than a theory until I find supporting data, right?)

That being said, he can do whatever he wants. It's his personal
recommendation, which is nothing more than bias and opinion. The law
shouldn't enter into it.
