Its ok to let the South Carolinians play their losing political grandstanding re: Evolution, the nimrods will get educated soon enough, if it comes to that. First thing the proof & mechanism for it isn't reliant upon the idea of Natural Selection any longer, its moved far beyond.

That's exactly where Eugenie Scott stops poor little Berlinksi dead in his tracks here when she asks him the question here at 2:00 in.

Berlinski says sure! Dr Scott shows him why its not any longer, these people are so far behind the curve, will be fun exposing their ignorance, not to worry.

"We ought to teach both sides and let students draw their own conclusions.">>
