A surefire way to tell if someone is a liar and/or ignorant about science is if they say a scientific theory is “only a theory,” like it’s a guess or a hypothesis and not a factual framework. That’s exactly what Florida’s new Board of Education chairman, a citrus farmer named Andy Tuck, said about the theory of evolution when he was the vice-chairman:
“As a person of faith, I strongly oppose any study of evolution as fact at all. I’m purely in favor of it staying a theory and only a theory. I won’t support any evolution being taught as fact at all in any of our schools.”
Tuck was appointed by Florida Governor Rick Scott.

The New Florida Board of Education Chair, Andy Tuck: “I won’t support any evolution being taught as fact at all in any of our schools.” Mr. Tuck, every student needs to learn the difference between science, mathematics, theology and religion. https://t.co/zJKIkGd48v — Roy David Walker (@WalkerForFL) August 1, 2019

He dismisses science but believes that a talking snake convinced a naked woman in a primeval garden to eat a piece of fruit.

If I have to deal with one more person asking why "Evolution" is just a theory, then I will gladly explain science to them again.
