This is the same old story of religion laying siege to reality/science. Not much has changed (except the names) since the days of Galileo and Copernicus. Religionists want to believe that they are the center of creation, so they despised heliocentrism (the fact that the planets circle the sun, not the earth), and now they despise evolution because they feel that their gods don't revolve around them. Folks, when religionists take a stand on scientific issues, you can bet your child's college fund that they are wrong.

I applaud the Council of Europe for taking a strong stand against mythology dressed in a laboratory coat. 64.241.37.140 22:46, 13 October 2007 (UTC)kjdamrauReply
