The Guardian vs. Intelligence

Ah yes, our favorite atheistic nation is back at it again. Or at least, the Guardian, a UK Newspaper is. Check out these comments by Martin Kettle:

“But organisers of the museum’s terrific new exhibition on the life and work of Charles Darwin acknowledge that theirs is an explicit gesture of defiance towards an anti-scientific Christian fundamentalism that is again running fast and deep in contemporary America.”

“They (Americans) believe, incredibly, that the earth is only a few thousand years old.”

“‘intelligent design’ – the conceit that the complexity of the natural world can only be explained by the intercession of a supreme being”

Ah yes, we Americans are morons for believing that the earth is younger than the astro-physical limits of its age. (Our planet’s decline in rotational speed, the orbit of the moon, and the rate of the sun’s consumption of its elemental fuel all laugh at a “billions-of-years-old” earth) Christians who believe in creationism over Darwinism are not anti-scientific in their skepticism over missing links and the complete lack of evidence for beneficial macro-evolution.

I’ve been over this before.
