Revision as of 05:14, May 9, 2007

The creation-evolution controversy is a recurring dispute a debate most prevalent in regions of the United States where it is often portrayed as part of the culture wars.[1] While the controversy has a long history,[2] today it primarily concerns what should be taught as science in schools, and what is good science.[3] In the United States, the teaching of biological evolution in the public schools is a significant area of contention, while the teaching of alternatives such as creation science and intelligent design (ID) are other aspects of the dispute.

In the first case, evolutionists argue that creationism should not be taught in the public schools because it is fundementally regligious in nature and not science. Creationists argue that evolution should not be taught because it is bad science or because it is an anti-theist ideology dressed up as science.[4] In the second case, concerned parents, educators, scientists, and other interested parties argue that creation science and intelligent design are not scientific; rather, they are viewed as thinly disguised schemes to introduce religion to the classroom. In the United States, recent court decisions have affirmed this position, consistently barring the introduction of creation science and intelligent design into public science curricula
