The Texas State Board of Education's meeting in Austin about, among other things, whether the board ought to revise the state’s science curriculum to allow for, ya know, the teaching of creationism alongside evolution. Which is why three rabbis, two from 'round these parts and one of whom hails from my old camp down in Bruceville, found themselves in Austin yesterday trying to convince the board that eating church and state off the same plate is decidedly not kosher.
