Interesting. If one reads the entire article, one can pick up on the leftist slant, particularly at the end.
Strange, I thought science was supposed to be completely objective.

The nicest thing I can say is that SA is starting to rival the New York Times for bottom-of-bird-cage status -- wouldn't use either for fish-wrap, some of the type might bleed off onto dinner.

Perfect editorial for April Fools Day: "The fool says in his heart 'There is no God'..." -- Ps. 14:1

That's what makes ID a superior scientific theory: it doesn't get bogged down in details.
LOL. Too funny.

I am a person who believes in evolution and I subscribe to Scientific American, but still I found this editorial smarmy, condescending and arrogant.
This is their lame-ass attempt at clever way of diffusing the very accurate charge that their magazine has grown unbearably political over the last few years. (Did you miss their tribute to congress's non-partisan champion of science - Henry Waxman a few months ago? Or their "strictly science" article that dismissed missle defense as an utterly unworkable system designed only to enrich the supporters of the Republican corruption machine.)
Instead of responding with this insulting misdirection, they should answer the question many of their readers want to know - Do they intend to be a science publication or a political publication?
Actually, in their snitty way, I guess they did answer it. I'll not be renewing my subscription.

If the government commits blindly to building an anti-ICBM defense system that can't work as promised, that will waste tens of billions of taxpayers' dollars and imperil national security, you won't hear about it from us. If studies suggest that the administration's antipollution measures would actually increase the dangerous particulates that people breathe during the next two decades, that's not our concern. No more discussions of how policies affect science either -- so what if the budget for the National Science Foundation is slashed?Not that it comes as a surprise, but it's good to see them show, all in one nice neat little paragraph, what their true political bent is.

Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.-- Psalm 1
Amen.

I recall an archaelogical magazine with the same title, but don't know if it is this one. The one I read was put out by amateurs, not scientists. If this is the same mag, it would be dishonest to say scientists are "admitting" their bias.
To: PatrickHenry
Checked the site, it's not the same one written by amateurs.

I think evolutionists, creationists, and intelligent-design people are complete fools.

Haha! Let's spoof on the Christians and their crazy beliefs... teehee...
Funny how the so-called "scientists" worship their theories with a faith unmatched by the most fanatical of any other religion. More funny when an exalted theory crumbles under new evidence and they are left with nothing.

I got a year subscription using FF points, so it was free. After getting it for many months now, I must say I paid too much. They beat on Bush like a particle accelerator target.
