What's more, there are over 1,000 scientists named Steve who agree with this statement:
Evolution is a vital, well-supported, unifying principle of the biological sciences, and the scientific evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of the idea that all living things share a common ancestry. Although there are legitimate debates about the patterns and processes of evolution, there is no serious scientific doubt that evolution occurred or that natural selection is a major mechanism in its occurrence. It is scientifically inappropriate and pedagogically irresponsible for creationist pseudoscience, including but not limited to "intelligent design," to be introduced into the science curricula of our nation's public schools.
None of them are cdesign proponentsists, either. If around 1 in a hundred scientists are named Steve,
Project Steve suggests that over 10,000 scientists feel the same way. Of course, we all know that none of these guys know anywhere near as much about 21st Century science as the "founders of modern science" (whoever they are) did.
For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and non-believers. -- Barack Obama
We see monsters where science shows us windmills. -- Phat
