Talk:Scientific Theory of Evolution (view source)
Revision as of 00:21, March 22, 2007

Evolution most certainly is not very controversial in the United States. A very very small fraction of the scientists who signed the discovery institute's petition against evolution have degrees in the life sciences, and the total number makes up a tiny fraction of scientists in the US. Court rulings in Dover show that legal precedent still sides with evolution. Additionally, the removal of ALL of the board members from the Dover board of education shows that the public there sides with evolution as well. The idea that there is any controversy at all is an overstatement lending power to a few dissident individuals stepping way from an enormous majority. --[[User:Charliemc86|Charliemc86]]

:Charlie, I wholly (!!!!) agree with you, I really do. Trust me, I revere the ''Kitzmiller'' decision for blasting ID out of the water. But this article will get deleted wholesale, and we'll have only the [[theory of evolution]] page, which is wholly unscientific. I think this might be the best we can do on this site. But could you please talk more about evolution as a positive in this article, rather than delete the "controversial" paragraph? I'd appreciate ANY ANY help you can give. Really, I'm hugely on your side.-[[User:AmesG|AmesG]] 20:21, 21 March 2007 (EDT)
