An news story today reports that Orin Hatch, R-Utah, managed to push
through a rider to an educational bill a while ago that required schools
who receive educational funds from the US Government to "not teach
any subject matter of secular humanism".  

Isaac Asimov and others in a NY group whose title includes
"secular humanism" have filed suit in federal court, charging
an abridgement of the first amendment.

It should be interesting!
