From the article:
America is being attacked from within through its public schools by a militant religious movement called Darwinists.

Deranged creationists are so totally detached from reality that they can't see the similarity between themselves and the Taliban. Indeed, the only difference between the fools at ICR and the Taliban is that the latter whackos have political power, and are -- for now -- free to kill those who don't share their insane worldview. But if the ICR crowd had the chance, does anyone doubt that they'd behave more or less the same?

Idealistically, I would hope not. I did not want to make the same parallels that you just did, merely because I felt I was stooping to their level to do so. My hopes are that they would not stoop thus, simply because I have at least some hope for fundamentalist Christianity.

Hey, stop that. Don't you know the Taliban is a faith-based organization, too? ....

Ooooops!

I am offended by this. What a sick comment and attack on those believing in intelligent design. I acknowledge that the article by ICR was well, ignorant for one, as they got names wrong in the article and as my journalism adviser says, "if your mother says she loves you check it out." The date for the Sputnik was wrong as well. I do think comparing the terrorists to PBS is a bit of a stretch as well.
