		I read in reports from Venice (cf the Film Festival...) that the director/wife of Bernardo Bertolucci, Claire People, agrees with me...and to complete the information, I must tell you, Ministers, that Bertolucci’s photographic magician, Vittorio Storaro, on the contrary, has told me in Taormina that his view is quite the opposite.

		It all started when the minister of education, universities, and research, Letizia Moratti, announced the new teaching programs banning teaching evolutionary theory to young teenagers.
		Education Minister Moratti defended the change by explaining that pupils should learn about the origin of species gradually, according to "didactic criteria." That is, they would first learn the biblical version of creation and, only years later, the scientific theory.
		And it does not explain what has now induced Moratti to appoint a committee specifically to provide guidelines for teaching evolutionary theory at various stages.
