Will Academic Freedom Come to Georgia?

A commentary, written by Dr. Kelly Hollowell, appears on the WorldNetDaily web site. Dr. Hollowell, J.D., Ph.D., is a scientist, patent attorney and adjunct law professor of bioethics. She is also a nationally recognized conference speaker.

The thoughtful commentary begins by noting that "A favorite liberal maxim is: 'The mind is like a parachute. It only functions when open.' So why are libs so zealously opposed to any idea that runs counter to evolution?"

Hollowell rightly points out that "the entanglement of philosophy and science over the last 100 years has led to a one-sided education system where the free exchange of ideas and critical thinking is suppressed."

She notes that the juvenile attacks of Darwinists to silence anti-evolutionists consist of "marginalize them through name-calling and character assassination. They characterized those who support the intelligent design movement as Bible-thumping fundamentalists, dangerous pseudo-scientists, flat earthers, etc."
