In the Image of What?: First-hand Account of Creationism in the Classroom
http://intheimageofwhat.blogspot.com/2009/11/first-hand-account-of-creationism-in.html
In the Image of What? Evolution, Intelligent Design, and Creationism in American Education. Monday, November 9, 2009. First-hand Account of Creationism in the Classroom. In my sophomore biology class, a large portion of the textbook was designed as an attack on evolution.

Here is what I am asking you: what should that something be? Monday, October 26, 2009. Take a Look at These. The End of the World. It is clear that the ...

In the Image of What? Evolution, Intelligent Design, and Creationism in American Education. Monday, November 9, 2009. Creationism in Europe: A Brief Look. Citing the dangers of teaching creationism. The resolution is congruent with what I’ve been blogging about; they don’t consider any form of creationism to be science and are of the opinion that teaching it in the classroom as science is dangerous.
