SEC. 1022. SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING SCIENCE EDUCATION.
It is the sense of the Senate that-- (1) good science education should prepare students to distinguish the data or testable theories of science from philosophical or religious claims that are made in the name of science; and (2) where biological evolution is taught, the curriculum should help students to understand why this subject generates so much continuing controversy, and should prepare the students to be informed participants in public discussions regarding the subject.

- How to use "wikified" citations Step-by-step:
- Where you want the citation to appear in the article, type in: {{ref|descriptionname}}, replacing 'descriptionname' with a unique name of the footnote.
- In the "Notes" section, type in: # {{note|descriptionname}}
- All of the notes under this section should be surrounded by these "div style" tags in order to make the text smaller:
- <div style="font-size: 90%">...Notes and citations here...</div>
- Be sure to remove the 'nowiki' tags all the way through, if they ended up in your wiki code.
- Use the citation and notation style of choice for the field, or the style that you would prefer use. Consistency within the article is the goal. If you want some ideas on style, check out Wikipedia's citation style examples.
