Anyways, not to get on the topic of creationism (please don't), the point was to say there is a lot of snobbing in academia, and a lot of it is done by it would seem liberal thinkers. It's just sad. |
I have both left and right leaning colleagues in academia, both as freinds and respected coworkers. Your example is not a political one. ID suffers from an overwhelming lack of evidence. Evidence based science is the one thing that unites academics. I know Stepen Colbert has argued that reality has a liberal bias... but in the example above it is more a matter of people holding an position that is indefensible in an academic context.
