Intelligent design and educational stupidity

[wormburger]

“what escapes most commentators is that both Muslim and Christian views on Darwinism are a recent product of the attack on scientific certainty in the West….It is the argument between the proponents of science and its cultural relativist critics in the UK and the USA that should be our real target. Standing up for science now means being prepared to win the arguments for progress with those who want to accept muddle-headed semi-religious ideas in its place rather than dismissing them.…Lambasting religion as being the source of all evil [as Richard Dawkins does] will win no-one to the cause of science. Instead, we need to understand why people think science has lost its relevance to them, and challenge the idea that science is an elitist tool of domination.”
