Four people in every ten in the US agree with pete that evolution is wrong. What does that say, do you suppose? You say that people like pete should be accommodated. I say that people like pete should be vigorously challenged and ridiculed (for their inability to accept evidence when it's staring them in the face) at every turn. People like pete want equal billing in schools for their nonsense. Don't you think that religious instruction in schools is nonsense enough without bolting creationism on to it? You say you want to find common ground with that kind of person. I'm intrigued to know how you see that happening. How will you prise open their eyes?
