Extract

The scientific creationist movement has been roundly criticized by a wide spectrum of religious leaders, theologians, and philosophers of religion for its attempts to have its idiosyncratic ideas about the physical world taught in the public schools as scientific alternatives to evolutionary ideas. These religious critics have typically agreed with their secular counterparts that the scientific creationists are guilty of a serious distortion of science.
