Abstract

During the past few years the scientific community at large and the education community in particular have awakened to the public's concern about restoring traditional values in American society. The theory of evolution is seen by many Fundamentalists as responsible for the destruction of these values. Thus, in an attempt to restore this value system, a substantial part of the public has supported the movement to teach "creation science," which purports to show that a literal interpretation of the Genesis account of origins, including the notion that the universe is only a few thousand years old, can be supported scientifically.
