ASP Round 2

Scott, Eugenie C. “Antievolution and creationism in the United States.” Annual View of Anthropology 26.1 (1997): 263. Academic Search Premier. EBSCO. 28 October 2009.
This article is about how the argument started as a fight between evolutionism and creationism. In recent years, the article says that there has been a new addition to the argument: Intelligent Design. The article discusses people who are for creationism and Intelligent Design, and what they have been doing to move evolution out of the way.

Windsor, Donald A. “Creationism is a dumbing-down of God.” Perspectives in Biology & Medicine 42.2 (1999): 288. Academic Search Premier. EBSCO. 28 October 2009.
The refute against my argument is an article about the similar view of many evolutionists. The writer gives all the generally rebuttals to the argument for creationism, using scientific evidence as usual. Overall, the writer simply wants to imply that while creationists believe the world was created by God, the idea of creationism is one that makes God seem dumb.

Zuidema, Henry P. “Less Evolution, More Creationism in Textbooks.” Educational Leadership 39.3 (December 1981): 217-218. Academic Search Premier. EBSCO. 28 October 2009.
This article analyzed the surprising change of science textbooks. It discusses the fact that there is more creationism now published, and that these publishers are simply catering to creationists to make their living. The article also shows the reactions of the schools to this change, called creation science. The writer also expands on the specifics of the creation science movement.
