Do keep in mind that if you move to TX, your children will learn creationism IN SCHOOL. Also, they will likely learn about a white-washed version of slavery. This is a really big deal to me, and it should be a big deal to more liberals who move out there.

I attended high school in TX and can verify that in biology class I had absolutely no exposure to creationism. For what it's worth, the Texas Legislature recently signed a bill vastly decreasing the number of high-stakes standardized tests required to graduate high school, which I hope is a sign of improvements to come for the public school system here.

Sorry, but that's nonsense. Don't believe everything read on Huff-post.

Edit: And since it's sure to come up, our sex education isn't abstinence-only, either.
