DESCRIPTION:In the beginning... there was the effort to ban the teaching o
 f evolution\, and John T.  Scopes is remembered as the Tennessee teacher w
 hose trial made\nthe creationism/evolution controversy an American icon.  
 But American antievolutionism has continued through until the present day\
 , and it is accurate to describe its evolution as morphological change in 
 response to restrictions of its legal environment.  Antievolutionism chang
 ed from stressing the Bible as its source of authority to using the imprim
 atur of\nscience and we have seen the evolution of creation science and in
 telligent design.  Whither antievolutionism in the future?  We predict tha
 t creation science and intelligent design will change yet further in some 
 ways\, going back to their roots.
