Today, the important case known as Scopes II begins. A Federal District Court in Harrisburg, Penn., will hear the first direct challenge to a school district that has tried to mandate the teaching of "intelligent design".
Anyone who isn't brainwashed understands that so-called intelligent design is nothing more than repackaged creationism. Here is a real question for science: What defect is in the DNA of fundamentalists that compels them to shove their religion down the throats of others?
If one wants to believe that evolution doesn't exist, then go to a backwoods church on Sunday. However, do the civilized world a favor and stop trying to get public schools to teach sermons instead of science.

Obviously, fundamentalists are a bunch of weak-minded psychological midgets who simply can't live successfully in a pluralistic society. They have chosen to base their lives on a 2,000-year old fairy tale, hence the complete lack of accomplishment in any area of their lives.

I'm interested in this. The rejection of the evolution theory confuses me. Intelligent design is creationism with whiteout over the word 'God'. A clever move; I do hope it won't work.

Yes, whatever science cannot explain, intelligent design steps in to say that there has to be a higher power that is the cause for these mysteries of life. Its so transparent what they're trying to do. Its religious indoctrination by another name, forcing a religious belief system on everyone.
