1850-talets slut
Biskopen i Göteborg, Gustaf Daniel Björck, vill förbjuda geologistudiet vid stadens gymnasium, därför att geologins resultat stred mot den bibliska skapelseberättelsen.

Citat:

[ID] is not a scientific argument at all, but a religious one. It might be worth discussing in a class on the history of ideas, in a philosophy class on popular logical fallacies, or in a comparative religion class on origin myths from around the world. But it no more belongs in a biology class than alchemy belongs in a chemistry class, phlogiston in a physics class or the stork theory in a sex education class. In those cases, the demand for equal time for 'both theories' would be ludicrous. Similarly, in a class on 20th-century European history, who would demand equal time for the theory that the Holocaust never happened?
Richard Dawkins
