Science, research and development vs. Intelligent Design
If I'm a Democrat running for Congress, I'm making it "us against them," i.e., research and development versus intelligent design.
Technological development is at the core of increasing productivity, and everyone benefits from it regardless of where the basic research is done.If our children are going to have a secure place in the world of the 21st century, we're going to have to get serious about science and dump the nonsense about creationism (and everything it represents) in the science classroomStill, the places that do the research get the lion's share of the benefit, and if you were a scientist, where would you rather be? UCLA or Stanford on the one hand, or someplace where the locals try to ban the teaching of evolution and think that biotech laboratories are symbols of moral degeneracy?
Seems like an easy choice.
