Subject:   Intelligent Design in Nature
------------------------------------------------------------

  The April issue of the respected science magazine Nature has a feature
article on the Intelligent Design movement. The magazine also devotes its
its entire frontpage to the topic as well an editorial, which claims that
although Intelligent Design is wholly unscientific and fundamentally wrong,
it is making big in-roads in the scientific world and amongst students and
therefore must be dealt with.

  The Intelligent Design movement is a movement of scientists, who on
strictly scientific grounds criticize the theory of evolution and claims
that life has features that can only be explained in terms of an intelligent
cause. The scientific establishment has been fighting vigorously against
this movement for the last ten years, but seemingly to no avail. It appears
in these years that more and more scientists are rejecting the theory of
evolution (thus fulfilling Srila Prabhupadas desire).

  You can read the article in Nature at www.nature.com and some comments
from the Intelligent Design movement at www.idthefuture.com.

  PS. Srila Prabhupada supposedly said, that the theory of evolution will be
dead within 50 years (beginning from the 1970's). Does anyone know such a
quote and where it is from?
