KU professor steps down as head of Religious Studies
The Wichita Eagle picked up the story from the Kansas City Star by David Klepper, regarding the embattled Dr. Paul Mirecki of the University of Kansas.
Dr. Mirecki claimed he was beaten up by people sympathetic with creationism or ID on a lonely rural road south of Lawrence, Kansas this past Monday. While many believe he should be given the benefit of the doubt, some aren't so charitable, such as the piece you can access by clicking HERE.
You may recall, Dr. Mirecki said some rather unkind things about people of faith and ID proponents in a letter to his friends. He was going to teach a course at KU the next semester which called ID a myth (among other things), but the course was canceled shortly after his e-mail became public.

For the disturbing details, read the entire blog on the Discovery Institute Web site in Evolution News & Views.

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.
