Source: Scientific American magazine The Contradictions between the Creationist Movements A skeptic engages three types of creationists who claim science supports their beliefs, yet they contradict one another By Michael Shermer April 28, 2009 During the tsunami of bicentennial celebrations of Charles Darwin’s 200th birthday in February, I visited the fringes of evolutionary skepticism to better understand how one of science’s grandest theories could still be doubted.
