Friedrich: My opponent embraces the discredited science of causality. I believe that everything happens at once with no order or reason, and events have no cause or sequence. Diedrich: I accept the growing scientific consensus that effects are produced by causes. Even now, a series of events may be occurring all around us. Friedrich: Mr. Diedrich cannot prove that causes are linked to effects. It’s junk science, and I will not teach it in public schools. Instead, we will spin, spin, spin, all the day long. Diedrich: There will also be spinning in my schools. We will teach the controversy.
