You know you have the right side when your allies are Hare Krishnas and Islamists. It just shows the intellectual power of the creationist theory. It appeals to so many different kinds of well-informed people that it's just gotta be true.

Actually progress is being made.
"This time around, the challenge comes from a new breed of sophisticated, scientifically trained creationists who are pushing the theory of "intelligent design" (I.D.). The `ID-ers' do not interpret the Bible literally. They accept fossil record as evidence of the evolution of human beings from apes, and they accept that the earth is about 4.6 billion years old (and not 6,000 years old, as the earlier generation of Biblical creationists believed.) "
