Nu blander man kreationisme ind i eksamener i videnskab i England, og selv
på et lægestudier er der folk som tror, at der ikke har været nogen
udvikling (det har der måske heller ikke i deres tilfælde
)
Her er den om universitetet:

A growing number of science students on British campuses and in sixth form
colleges are challenging the theory of evolution and arguing that Darwin was
wrong. Some are being failed in university exams because they quote sayings
from the Bible or Qur'an as scientific fact and at one sixth form college in
London most biology students are now thought to be creationists.
Earlier this month Muslim medical students in London distributed leaflets
that dismissed Darwin's theories as false. Evangelical Christian students
are also increasingly vocal in challenging the notion of evolution
----------
Leaflets questioning Darwinism were circulated among students at the Guys
Hospital site of King's College London this month as part of the Islam
Awareness Week, organised by the college's Islamic Society. One member of
staff at Guys said that he found it deeply worrying that Darwin was being
dismissed by people who would soon be practising as doctors.
The leaflets are produced by the Al-Nasr Trust, a Slough-based charity set
up in 1992 with the aim of improving the understanding of Islam. The passage
quoted from the Qur'an states: "And God has created every animal from water.
Of them there are some that creep on their bellies, some that walk on two
legs and some that walk on four. God creates what he wills for verily God
has power over all things."
A 21-year-old medical student and member of the Islamic Society, who did not
want to be named, said that the Qur'an was clear that man had been created
and had not evolved as Darwin suggests. "There is no scientific evidence for
it [Darwin's Origin of Species]. It's only a theory. Man is the wonder of
God's creation."

Og EUs udenrigsministre er nu ved at folde sammen over de mest reaktionære
muslimske landes krav om forbud mod kritik af islam.
Hvad mon det ender med? bliver det kun 150 år tilbage i tiden, eller måske
250 år?
