If we turn around your statement to include the teachers unions and the NEA (perversion-belching liberal agenda promulgators), are we discussing reality yet?

LOL! Now, that's the spirit!

But unlike on the creationist side, I don't claim that correlation to be an accident. The NEA membership will all spout what the leadership tells it to spout. It could have spouted creationism, but happened to spout evolution. It's historical contingency. Spontaneous symmetry breaking. Self-organized criticality.

It could have spouted creationism, but happened to spout evolution.

But why DON'T they then??

Could there be a hidden agenda here?

Surely they could get a LOT of folks off their backs, for recent polls show MORE than half believe in Creation over Evolution.

The scientists behind the ID movement have demonstrated their seriousness in relying on scientific methods and definitions in their considerations of the evidence.

I have been very impressed with their sincere attempts to distance the information from scriptural influence. This is why they are finally succeeding at bring the information to the scientific community, and having it influence the debate.
