A frequent criticism of creationism and Intelligent Design is that they fail to pass [[peer review]], and cannot therefore be considered scientific.

==== ''Science'' letters to the editor ====
After failing to get a letter published in the journal ''[[Science (journal)|Science]]'', [[Russell Humphreys]] wrote to the letters editor asking if the journal had a policy of suppressing creationist letters.
She replied that "It is true that we are not likely to publish letters supporting creationism".
This was despite the journal's policy of publishing letters to include "the presentation of minority or conflicting points of view".<ref>Gentry, 1986, p.199-194.</ref>
