A wider shade of Palin
But Cory makes a second, watery charge:
Pretty soon all McCain-Palin will have left to run on is moose burgers and creationism. And at this point, nothing could be more ironic than a McCain campaign touting “intelligent design.”
The claim here is that Governor Palin is an advocate of teaching creationism in public schools. Now this is a matter of some importance to me. I am opposed to creationism in the public curriculum, and likewise I oppose intelligent design theory.

Darwinism provides no explanation for the origin of complex enzymes (such as the one described in the French study) except to invoke “imaginary mutations over unimaginable time scales.” Musgrave counters that the enzyme in the French study “isn’t particularly complex, it’s a simple 201 amino acid long protein.” Of course, it doesn’t take much of a skeptic to doubt that a 201 amino acid enzyme could originate by random mutation and natural ... more
