If visitors challenge the presentations, the explainers are instructed to listen "and then explain the science and the evidence."

How is that dogma?

Religion is taught as dogma.

Science relies on observation, evidence, and testing of hypotheses. A very clear distinction.

I'm sorry, but the docent in a museum is not "teaching dogma." She's there to present what the museum exhibits. Period. If creationists have an issue with what the museum exhibits, harrassing volunteer docents isn't the way to express it. These jerks are no better than left-wing "activists" in their approach, and these tactics will not do anything to further their cause.

I find it interesting that when creationists want to imply that an idea is worthless trash, they call it religion, and when ID advocates want their ideas to appear respectable, they call them science.

It shouldn't. But mobbing a docent of a museum is on par with the anti-American thugs who mob Friends of the Border gatherings.

This crap is just idiotic grandstanding. If these people were really interested in questioning these scientific concepts, they should attend classes at the local college and discuss it with an instructor.

...but I guess that wouldn't get any press, now would it?

they look for explanations that can be tested by experiment and observation in the material world,
LOL! Kind of throws evolution out the window by their own rules. --- Oh that's right, they just redifine terms like tested, observation, and material world.
