The MacLaurin Institute is a Center - that is independent of the University - but is promoting Creationism (they call it intelligent design).... They sponsored a debate at the University on Gay Marriage - and it drew an overflow crowd.

Their creationist lectures from last year will be on public access TV.

I'd like to ask Minneapolis school board candidates this question:

Should the religious ideas with no scientific evidence in their support be taught in public school science classrooms? Intelligent Design is one of those things - despite denials from the characters pushing this.

Sen Michelle Bachmann had a cameo role at this event.... She asked about gay marriages causing increased illegitimacy in Scandinavia...

A good blog that covers this issue is Pharyngula.org. It's also got lots of good posts for the biology fan.
