The recurrent flap about creationism vs. evolution, tempest in a teapot that it is (evolution having moved beyond theory these past hundred years), moves me to quote Einstein concerning the antagonism between science and religion, in hopes of calming the rhetoric and smoothing the waters: “Religion without science is blind, science without religion is lame.”

When will fanatics realize that religion and science are two sides of the same coin?
