Researcher claims bias by Smithsonian
Joyce Howard Price reports in the Washington Times that a former editor of a scientific journal has filed a complaint against the Smithsonian Institution, charging that he was discriminated against on the basis of perceived religious and political beliefs because of an article he allowed to be published that challenged the Darwinian theory of evolution.
He said one zoology official told him the Smithsonian "is not comfortable with religious fundamentalism and with creationism, so you are being treated differently."
Dr. Sternberg also says one Smithsonian official even wanted to know if he is a "right-winger."

- Telic Thoughts
We are a group of individuals, coming from diverse backgrounds and not speaking for any organization, who have found common ground around teleological concepts, including intelligent design. We think these concepts have real potential to generate insights about our reality that are being drowned out by political advocacy from both sides. We hope this blog will provide a small voice that helps rectify this situation.
