Re: [asa] An Idea for Lay Education

As someone who now teaches high school math, the idea of a Sunday school
program on statistics is interesting - uh, Statistics from a Christian
Perspective? In Texas Statistics is a senior year class, taken after Algebra 2. The
people who teach the class look at as part of literacy - to understand what
political polls really mean - and how they can be skewed, to really be able to
look at financial statistics in the newspaper - it is a lot harder to fool
people who have some sense of how to handle data.
