the travesty has began in Dover, PA OK then, for the first time in the history of American education, public school students had to hear some nonsense about the possibility that the universe has been "intelligently designed" (what about tsunamis?, one would immediately want to ask), though the designer was left unspecified by the administrators who read a statement to several science classes (the teachers refused to do it). Moreover, when students started asking questions about intelligent design, the administrators left the classroom, suggesting that questions on the matter should be asked at home. Right, so why not let the whole matter to be discussed at home, in church, or even in philosophy or comparative religions classes? But not science, c'mon! To call this "an honest scientific evaluation of the theory of evolution" is a travesty, and one that is already been challenged in court. More on this as the court date (September 26) approaches... 9:27:07 PM    comment []
