Gonzalez is a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute, a conservative Seattle think tank leading the intelligent design movement.

Ping me when the Discovery Institute actually makes a discovery.

==Ping me when the Discovery Institute actually makes a discovery

It doesn't matter whether they discover anything. The point is Dr. Gonzalez more than exceeded his department’s requirements for tenure (publishing four times as many peer reviewed papers as is required) and he has not taught ID in the classroom. Iowa State is clearly punishing Gonzalez for his personal beliefs. So in effect, the university, as an extension of the state, is denying tenure to a professor for refusing to embrace philosophical materialism. This is a clear violation of Dr. Gonzalez’ First Amendment rights, and they must be made to pay for it...big time.

Does discovering new ways to fleece suckers with charlatan pseudo science count?
