Intelligent Design is Stupid



According to the Guardian, a growing number of science students are challenging the theory of evolution and arguing that Darwin was wrong. Some are being failed in university exams because they quote sayings from the Bible or Qur'an as scientific fact. In the United States there is growing pressure to teach creationism or "intelligent design" in science classes, despite legal rulings against it.
"There is an insidious and growing problem," said Professor Jones, of University College London. "It's a step back from rationality. They (the creationists) don't have a problem with science, they have a problem with argument. And irrationality is a very infectious disease as we see from the United States."
Our education system should provide access to the knowledge and understanding gained through the scientific method of experiment and observation, such as the theory of evolution through natural selection, and should withstand attempts to withhold or misrepresent this knowledge in order to promote particular beliefs, religious or otherwise.

I just think that religion cloaked as science needs to be exposed for what it is, bunk. Good luck to the scientist's who have to do the job.
