It is also why Darwinists reject ID scientists as a bunch of
creationists. Again, this is unfair -- but also beyond the scope of
the Kansas debate. The scientists joining the debate in Topeka aren't
necessarily interested in replacing Darwin with ID theory, and
certainly not with the Biblical account of creation. For them,
Darwin's theory is so riddled with holes that to teach it to students
unquestioningly is a disservice and inimical to the definition of
science.
And it is just this legitimate scientific debate that Darwinists
refuse to have. "The defense of Darwin's theory ... has fallen into
the hands of biologists who believe in suppressing criticism when
possible and ignoring it when not," wrote David Berlinski recently in
the Wichita Eagle. Mr. Berlinski, a senior fellow at the Discovery
Institute, is widely recognized as a leading Darwinian skeptic. He
continues, "It is not a strategy calculated to induce confidence in
the scientific method." It also doesn't help our students.
