Discovery Institute Propaganda Everywhere
Here we go again. As we approach the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin, shills for the Discovery Institute’s creationist agenda are popping up all over the place like pseudo-scientific jack-in-the-boxes. Here’s creationist John G. West in Forbes Magazine, blaming the theory of evolution for racism, slavery, welfare, immorality, gay marriage, and all of our economic problems: There Is No ‘Politically Correct’ Science.
And, as always, whining about their deceptive religious agenda being “suppressed” by the evil atheistic scientific establishment. It’s a conspiracy!
This is the GOP’s huge problem.

And here’s hardcore young earth creationist Henry Morris in US News and World Report, preaching his “God of the gaps” nonsense: Where Evolution Has Gaps, Creation Might Offer Answers—If We Will Listen.
