Adam and the Ape

It's 100 years since Darwin's death, but at the Institute for Creation Research at San Diego, California, they believe that in time his theory of evolution will become as extinct as the flat earth theory of the Middle Ages. They believe that the account of creation in the first chapter of Genesis is true and they claim they have scientific evidence to prove it. What's more, this month they are contesting a court case in Louisiana to have 'scientific creationism' taught in schools. Professor Michael Ruse, author of "Darwinism Defended", and The Rev Lord Soper are appalled. Confronting an audience of students and staff they maintain that 'creationism is bunk'.
