    Petition against Creationism in schools

    In case anybody hasn't seen it, here's a petition against the teaching of creationism is schools.

    To quote the petition creator:
    The Prime Minister has recently spoken about the importance of science education in the UK. Creationism & Intelligent design are greatly featured in the media and are being used disingenuously to portray science & the theory or evolution as being in crisis when they are not. Moreover groups such as Truth in Science are targeting our nation's children and their science education with material that is not only non-scientific but have been rejected by the scientific community. These ideas therefore do not constitute science, cannot be considered scientific education and therefore do not belong in the nation's science classrooms.
    I'm there. Anybody care to join me?
