Geotimes - Evolution battles continue:
"The battle over the teaching of evolution in public schools in the United States reached a fever pitch this week, as a number of prominent scientists testified in an ongoing court trial that pits evolution against intelligent design (the idea that evolution was guided by an 'intelligent being') in Dover, Pa. At the same time, geoscientists meeting in Salt Lake City, Utah, discussed how to combat the mounting attacks on evolution. In both places, the scientific concern was the same — that teaching intelligent design in the science classroom or not teaching the theory of evolution will harm students in the long run."
