Intelligent Design: Let’s All Lighten Up

From William Safire’s column of this morning: 

I will leave the last word on this old controversy with its new phraseology to
the neuroscientist Leon Cooper, a Nobel laureate at Brown University. He tells

we could have some fun in the classroom discussing the evidence and the proposed
explanations — just as we do at scientific conferences.”
