From Sen. Chris Buttars' comments, am I to understand we need to be mindful of believers' feelings but should care less about atheists? What a Christ-like attitude!

There are many evidences in pure science that can only be explained as miracles — such as the constancy of the speed of light. The only logical conclusion is a superior intelligence.

If Sen. Buttars' proposed legislation is adopted, I want the curriculum to include my beliefs, too. No one religion should steal the show. I know how my God created mankind, and I'm willing to bet it isn't this truth that Sen. Buttars wants to teach.

I find a God who is the originator of self-propelling natural processes, like evolution, much more satisfying than a God who found it necessary to show his imprint via the eubacterial flagellum. As an instructor of evolutionary biology at BYU, I found when students took time to really understand both their science and their religion, the controversy ended.
