The creationist conmen now have competition: welcome the reDiscovery Institute, which, like its namesake, "fosters integration of science education with traditional Judeo-Christian principles of free market, limited government, morality, faith, property, obedience and anti-intellectualism." However, the new Institute has as its "primary focus,"
to extend and promote Design Theories, which have been so successful in Biology, to the fields of Chemistry, Astronomy, Geology, Atmospheric Science, Oceanography, Material Science, Acoustics, Condensed Matter Physics, Fluid Dynamics, Nuclear Physics, Anthropology and Mathematics.
The reDiscovery Institute has adopted the successful methods of its namesake:
Our goals are to Teach the Controversies, all of them, each and every one. The reDiscovery Institute produces articles and studies on how to better educate children, and on how to re-educate certain adults (you know who you are). The reDiscovery Institute supports Fellows, whom gullible and lazy journalists like Lou Dobbs present to the public as credible scientists. The efforts of reDiscovery Institute Fellows are crucially abetted by the Institute's members, board and an ultra-conservative, ultra-rich, California savings and loan heir who believes that the American democracy should be replaced with biblical theocracy.
