In a disturbing development the Ohio House has passed legislation that would allow students to give wrong answers and not be penalized if those wrong answers are based on the student’s “sincerely held religious belief.”

Under the law, students can’t be penalized if their work is scientifically wrong as long as the reasoning is because of their religious beliefs.
