Dean Sounds off on Intelligent Design
(CBN News) – Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean has criticized President Bush for suggesting that students should learn about intelligent design, in addition to the theory of evolution.
Intelligent design contends that life is too complex to have evolved by accident. Dean told CBS’s “Face the Nation” that there is no factual evidence for intelligent design.
Dean said, “This is the most anti-scientific regime that I’ve seen in America in my lifetime. I’m a trained physician, as you are aware. I’m insulted by that. It’s going to harm America.”
Dean did concede that Albert Einstein thought there was some merit to intelligent design.
