Last week, The New Republic posted a lengthy article by Jerry Coyne on Intelligent Design (ID) on its web site, along with a brief piece by Leon Wieseltier. Yesterday, the local paper carried a brief excerpt from the Columbus, Ohio, Dispatch, claiming that ID should be recognized as veiled philosophy and religion rather than as science. Of course, the impetus for this flurry is the result of Bush's favorable comments about ID, but the transmission is intriguing: From the Washington offices of TNR, to Columbus's major newspaper, to Moscow in less than a week. It looks like a groundswell of opinion in opposition to ID, but it's only Jerry Coyne and Leon Wieseltier.
