Au cas ou quelqu'un ici croirait que les fantasmes de Julien sur la
scientificité du créationnisme/ID ont un femto-% de réalité...

>AAAS Board Resolution on Intelligent Design Theory
>
>The contemporary theory of biological evolution is one of the most
>robust products of scientific inquiry. It is the foundation for research in
>many areas of biology as well as an essential element of science
>education. To become informed and responsible citizens in our
>contemporary technological world, students need to study the theories
>and empirical evidence central to current scientific understanding.
>
>Over the past several years proponents of so-called "intelligent design
>theory," also known as ID, have challenged the accepted scientific
>theory of biological evolution.
T'as compris Juju ? C'est l'ID qui s'oppose à la théorie scientifique
acceptée de l'evolution biologique.
>As part of this effort they have sought to introduce the teaching
>of "intelligent design theory" into the science curricula of the public
>schools. The movement presents "intelligent design theory" to the public
>as a theoretical innovation, supported by scientific evidence, that offers
>a more adequate explanation for the origin of the diversity of living
>organisms than the current scientifically accepted theory of evolution. In
>response to this effort, individual scientists and philosophers of science
>have provided substantive critiques of "intelligent design,"
>demonstrating significant conceptual flaws in its formulation, a lack of
>credible scientific evidence, and misrepresentations of scientific facts.
En français: "... démontrant d'importantes failles conceptuelles dans sa
formulation, un manque de preuves scientifiques crédibles, et des
déformation de faits scientifiques." Mazette, ils n'y vont pas avec le dos
de la ciullères à l'AAAS !
>Recognizing that the "intelligent design theory" represents a challenge to
>the quality of science education, the Board of Directors of the AAAS
>unanimously adopts the following resolution:
>
>Whereas, ID proponents claim that contemporary evolutionary theory is
>incapable of explaining the origin of the diversity of living organisms;
>
>Whereas, to date, the ID movement has failed to offer credible scientific
>evidence to support their claim that ID undermines the current
>scientifically accepted theory of evolution;
>
>Whereas, the ID movement has not proposed a scientific means of
>testing its claims;
>
>Therefore Be It Resolved, that the lack of scientific warrant for so-
>called "intelligent design theory" makes it improper to include as a part
>of science education;
>
>Therefore Be Further It Resolved, that AAAS urges citizens across the
>nation to oppose the establishment of policies that would permit the
>teaching of "intelligent design theory" as a part of the science curricula
>of the public schools;
>
>Therefore Be It Further Resolved, that AAAS calls upon its members to
>assist those engaged in overseeing science education policy to
>understand the nature of science, the content of contemporary
>evolutionary theory and the inappropriateness of "intelligent design
>theory" as subject matter for science education;
>
>Therefore Be Further It Resolved, that AAAS encourages its affiliated
>societies to endorse this resolution and to communicate their support to
>appropriate parties at the federal, state and local levels of the
>government.

>Approved by the AAAS Board of Directors on 10/18/02
Bref, l'ID est de la pseudoscience pure et simple, une charlatanerie, et
ses interférences avec la science et l'éducation doivent être combattues
avec la plus extrême rigueur.
L'AAAS, pour ceux qui l'ignoreraient, est l'American Association for the
Advancement of Science. Elle a récemment acceptée la Parapsychological
Association comme membre, ce qui prouve que rien n'est parfait en ce
bas monde.
