The Washington Post ran this story on Friday about Smithsonian scientist Richard Sternberg. Sternberg, while serving as the editor of a now defunct scientific journal, published a peer-reviewed article by scientist Stephen Mayer. Mayer's article, in a nutshell, argued for why the Cambrian explosion points to an intelligent designer. Instantaneously, Sternberg was ostracized by the scientific community. Calling him a "Bible-thumper" and a "Young Earth Creationist", highly regarded scientists trashed Sternberg. Several scientists also investigated whether Sternberg believed in God! The ironic thing is, Sternberg holds TWO Ph Ds in evolutionary biology and does not agree with Intelligent Design. Yet, because he allowed this article to be published he has been tarnished and the journal has died. Religion, according to evolutionists, is not compatible with scientific thought.
What this sordid tale illustrates is the extremes the scientific community will go to protect evolution from criticism. Evolutionists are scared and they're desperate. Do yourself a favor and read this story, it will open your eyes (BTW, free registration is required to view this article).

Interesting article. Can't believe what they did to Sternberg. It almost makes you wonder if they are trying to hide anything that would ruin years of research and publications by them.
They certainly are trying to hide something. Most likey they do not want the theory questioned because they know that the evidence for evolution is not as concrete and tight as they claim.
