Last night, my alma mater's Assembly Series hosted a lecture by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Edward Larson on the topic "From Dayton to Dover: A Brief History of the Evolution Teaching Controversy in the U.S." I really enjoyed the talk as an overview of the evolution vs. creation debate over the past century or so.The main structure was an analysis of the three strategies that anti-Evolution activists have used over the years:
- Removing evolution from the classroom
- Balancing evolution with some form of creationist instruction
- Teaching that evolution itself is "just a theory"
