No, not at all. The article's first sentence says this:
Some people think evolution should not be mentioned at all in public schools, while others think any evidence that may contradict evolution should not be allowed.No truth in the part I underlined. The article goes on to say this:
For example, a growing number of prominent biologists are signing on to the following statement: "We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged." Written in 2001 to encourage open-mindedness within the scientific community ...That gives an entirely false impression. The genuine scientists who question evolution are an extremely small number. (When I say "genuine scientists" I'm aware of the 2 or 3 biologists who have been said to be "leaving evolution in droves"; and I intentionally exclude charlatans who, like Duane Gish, are trained primarily in the engineering of sanitation facilities.) The article ignores items like this: Project Steve: FAQs (National Center for Science Education) which demonstrates what a joke the "anti-evolution bandwagon" really is. The article also says:
However, I'm concerned that some citizens and committee members want Darwinian evolution taught as undisputed fact while prohibiting any critical analysis of this and other scientific theories. This is no less biased than those who do not want evolution mentioned at all. History reveals how such suppression of data actually hinders science, while honest inquiry promotes it.Purest garbage. Evolution is a theory, and should be tought as such. It explains facts, which is what theories are supposed to do. There are no competing scientific theories, so it's insane to speak of "suppression" of honest inquiry.

Patrick Henry as usual firmly denying what he knows to be absolutely true.
The evolutionists everywhere are fighting against anything being said against evolution. This includes correcting textbooks for falsehoods, saying that there are alternatives to evolution, saying that the question is still open, etc.
The facts are all over FreeRepublic in numerous articles which seem to appear more often than once a week. Your repeating a blatant lie, even a million times does not make it true, it just shows your dishonesty.
