Evolve Already!
Our contemporary existence—with its advanced medicine, high-tech communication and more convenience than mankind has ever known—is all thanks to science and engineering, not religion. It makes me laugh when fundamentalists and creationists use the Internet to disseminate their propaganda or seek advanced therapies for their illnesses, while being utterly in denial about the science that led to those possibilities.
We need researchers and engineers working at the cutting edge of human knowledge to ensure the future of our country and our economy. It’s time to stop indoctrinating our young with obvious mythology and misinformation that will stop development in its tracks and sabotage our country’s promise.
