PZ wrote an excellent letter<\/a> to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune<\/a> (the Strib – often cited as the states’s “paper of record”, although I’m guessing that Pharyngula<\/a> will give them a run for their money) on the many failings of “Intelligent Design” to meet any sensible standards for an explanatory proposition. He also points out that the Strib is calling for letters<\/a> on the subject by Monday, 2 May.<\/p>\n

\nAn invitation to readers on ID\/evolution.<\/strong>
\nWe’re interested in your thoughts on intelligent design, evolution, and their proper places in school curricula. Write us an e-mail of no more than 150 words and send it to opinion@startribune.com<\/a>, with the word “evolution” in the subject line. Be sure to include your name, address and telephone number so we can contact you if we decide to publish your response. Please reply by Monday, May 2.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It would clearly be a fine thing if they hear from a wide variety of folks on this important issue, especially given the enthusiasm of many to subvert our educational institutions. I’ll have to see if I can figure out something useful to say in less than 150 words before Monday.<\/p>\n

P.S. Do other people also find it exceedingly painful to have to type the otherwise excellent word “intelligent” when writing out ID? Iggity-iggity-iggty-shiver…<\/p>\nNo tag for this post.\n\t
