The virus of Intelligent Design, that is.
A new survey has shown that 40% of Brits think that ID should be taught in science classes. The first person to comment on this idiocy was David Attenborough, the man who I formerly had thought was practically single-handedly responsible for the general scientific (particularly biological) savvy amongst the general public. But he's been less frequently on our screens in the last decade or so (pace the new phenomenal series shown at the end of last year, Life In The Undergrowth) and we've sunk back into our mud of superstitious ignorance.
