“People cited violation of the First Amendment when a New Jersey schoolteacher asserted that evolution and the Big Bang are not scientific fact. This is a clear indication that temporarily, the inmates are running the asylum.”
— Neil deGrasse Tyson
Simplified Meaning:
People complained about their right to free speech when a teacher in New Jersey said evolution and the Big Bang are not real science. This shows that, for a short time, the people who should not be in control were making the decisions.
