Of all science-related controversies, the old evolution/creation argument seems to be the hardest to lay to rest. Lately, it’s been back in the news following attempts in several US states to introduce the teaching of creation-related content in science lessons and its appearance in science lessons at the UK’s Emmanuel City Technology College in Gateshead 1 (sponsored by the allegedly evangelically-motivated Vardy Foundation). Add to the mix the refusal of George Bush and Tony Blair to condemn this outright, renewed calls from the religiously motivated to at least “teach the controversy” and the arrival of “Intelligent Design” on the scene.
