Over at TPMCafe Dr. Jeremy Gunn (that ain't a degree in Theology, I bet) of the ACLU talks about the new National Academies report on Science education and the importance for future economic growth. Got some time? download the whole shebang here Somewhat suprisingly, it points out that ID is total and complete bunk, and belongs in science classrooms about as much as alchemy (speaking of alchemy, even Sir Isaac Newton, a not too shabby mathmetician, was a crypto-alchemist, although he was wise enough to keep it a secret his entire life. it may have been his private passion, but he knew what other scientists thought of it and that it wasn't ready for Prime Time, if only the IDers had the same sense)
I just had a brainstorm. Maybe, just maybe, this is all a plan to stop immigration! There seems to be a strong correlation between the anti-immigration folks and the IDers, maybe the plan is to run ourselves down to such an extent that the flow of immigrants dries up. After all, it's not like people were flooding into Rome around 600, right? Actually, it's a perfect defense mechanism as well, even better than Star Wars! I notice the Goths and Visigoths stopped sacking Rome roughly the same time the lead in the waterkicked in. hmm...
