Atheism worldwide in decline
This article, by Uwe Siemon-Netto, mentions that atheism as a public world view belief system is on the decline, but, not, perhaps on an individual level.
ID is mentioned in the article, as is one-time atheist philosopher Antony Flew. Flew is quoted as saying, "It is, for example, impossible for evolution to account for the fact than one single cell can carry more data than all the volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica put together."
While Flew has not become a Christian, as a theist he now holds to the intelligent design concept of scholars such as William Dembski.

Is the Smithsonian promoting religion?
In light of the recent persecution by the Smithsonian of Dr. Rick Sternberg (former editor of their journal who published Steve Meyer's now-famous article on ID and the origin of body plans), the linked article below is highly relevant. The Smithsonian obviously has an anti-ID bias, if not an anti-Christian bias.
From the commentary on Townhall, the Smithsonian apparently is selective in it's anti-religious bias.
Smithsonian's new federally funded National Museum of the American Indian, posts Native American prayers on the federal Mall.
The museum also features exhibits critical of Christianity. In the "Our Peoples" exhibit, a narrator says ambivalently: "Christianity: A weapon of forced conversion, slavery and oppression, a weapon of liberation and social justice, salvation and eternal life. Today, many of us are Christians, and many are not."

Trinity University Biology Seminar - March 7th
The title of the seminar is:
Policy recapitulates theology: Intelligent Design and the evolution of creationism
Dr. James Ivy
Department of English
Trinity University, San Antonio, Texas
Question: If evolution is only a theory, why would anyone object to presenting an alternative explanation of human origins? Proponents of Intelligent Design suggest that the scientific foundations of Darwinian evolution are crumbling, yet school children are still indoctrinated in its nineteenth-century materialism. Shouldn't public school students at least be allowed to hear both sides?

An 'affront to the truth' - comments on Dr. Dembski's arrival at SBTS
Several letters to the Lousiville Courier Journal were published. They had little nice to say about Dembski or ID.
Mindless rhetoric and ad hominem attacks were rampant. Such as "Dembski is a scientist like Elmer Fudd is a hunter." And "he landed a job where he belongs, at a Bible school instead of a real university." And
"this faith-based theory has the answer before the question is asked."

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.
