これは、創造論教育を可能にするケンタッキー州(聖書創造論)州法(1976, 1990)(158.177 )をモデルとする州法案である。ただし、ケンタッキー州法はEdwards v. Aguillard裁判(1987)での違憲判決に該当する内容であるため、実際に使うと違憲であり、効力を持っていない。

結果的には、提案しただけで放置され、会期切れ廃案となった。

Alabama House Bill 258
By Representative Hurst
RFD Education Policy
Rd 1 18-JAN-18


SYNOPSIS:This bill would enable public school teachers who teach kindergarten through 12th grade to include, as a portion of instruction regarding the scientific origins of man and the Earth, instruction regarding the Biblical theory of creation, so long as evolution is also taught. This bill would further allow any teacher who desires to instruct students regarding the Biblical theory of creation to read passages from the Bible in class which he or she deems necessary to propel the instruction forward.

この州法案は幼稚園から12学区年までを教える公立学校教師に対して、進化論を教える場合に限り、人間と地球の科学的起源に関する指導と、聖書の創造論についての指導を含めることを可能にする。この州法案は聖書の創造論について教えることを希望する教師が、指示を推進するために必要と考える授業で、聖書の節を読むことを可能にする。

This bill would allow a student receiving instruction on both the Biblical theory of creation and evolution to make a determination as to which theory to accept. A student would be permitted credit on course exams if he or she chooses to adhere to the Biblical theory of creation instead of evolution and then answers exam questions according to that system of belief.

A BILL
TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT

(b) For those students receiving instruction as described in subsection (a), and who accept the Bible theory of creation, credit shall be permitted on any examination in which the student provides a response in adherence to the theory, provided the response is correct according to the instruction received.
