Couldn't Say it Better Myself

Last week the New York Times printed a semi-interesting Op-Ed on the ongoing hullabaloo over creationism vs evolution and its effect on public education.

Today's paper contained letters to the editor in response, one of which I thought was particularly germane to my earlier posts:

"What evolution threatens is not faith in God but faith in a literalist reading of Genesis; the only reason fundamentalists care about this topic is that their primary faith is not in God but in scriptural inerrancy."
