Besides their sad survey that shows that most christians beleive that they should push YECism in museums, they have this article about letter writing.
Great, more pressue. At least with the letter writing, we can do the same thing.
Though the spin he puts on the "evolutionists" letters is amusing; it shows how manipulative these people are. I think though, that "shrill" describes the YEC movement more than it does ours.

What brought that on? this. Original posting here.
Another example of this guy's lunacy here. |

| I'm not surprised that 73% of people affiliated with something called "Action in Genesis" would support aggressive promotion of creationism. |

I am especially amused by this: quote:
They [evolutionists] are increasingly attempting to present pro-evolution scientific arguments in their writings.
What is the implication here? That so-called "evolutionists" have not presented scientific arguments before? |

lol, I first interpreted the implication as "we can't let them use better arguments than us". |

First, this is just plain silly:quote:
most evolutionists who write guest columns for newspapers (as well as letters to the editor) fail to bring up any specific scientific evidence to bolster their claims
second, their penicillin claim is wrong, the drug is still used quite often, and third, their claim about how drug resistance develops is wrong. Mutation does lead to resistance AND drug resistance is transferred to other species, actually by at least 4 mechanisms not just plasmids.
This is one of the frustrating tactics these idiots use. They report something they have been told is scientifically correct but which is not correct. From one to another, they convince each other there is some actual evidence supporting their claims. Pure ignorance at its worst. |

| I emailed them about their errors with something to the effect they were using the "see no evil" approach that was bound to backfire later. |
