Darwinian pregnancy rate
The researcher quoted here says pregnancy rates are down because of improved use of contraception:
“The report’s lead author, Stephanie J. Ventura, a demographer with the health statistics center, said the declining numbers were largely a result of birth control. ‘It’s not that the birthrate is going up and the abortion rate down, which has happened in the past,’ she said. ‘Now everything is changing in the same direction, suggesting that more effective birth control is at work here’.”
A large number of recent American presidents and high government officials have openly supported creationism/Intelligent Design, or at least have expressed the view that students and teachers have the right to question Darwinism. In the last century alone, presidents who spoke openly of their doubts about Darwinism include Harry Truman, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush. A few of the many “on the record” statements of presidential support of their belief in creationism are reviewed below. Other statements by high level government officials were also noted.

Leftist Gunmen take Hostages, Dissolve Civilization
By Joel McDurmon
Enlightened by Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth as well as a novel about a talking gorilla, James Lee on Wednesday stormed the Discovery Channel building near Washington, D.C. with a gun and homemade (though he was homeless) bombs demanding the corporation change its programming according to his manifesto. The manifesto features themes of disarmament, population reduction, and environmentalist propaganda. Headlines followed.
It might be Wilson’s; it might be terrifying and Darwinian, but it is a concept of government and of the constitution that seems to be held today even by most Christians. At least it exposes the deception that even many Christians want to believe – that civil government is morally and epistemologically neutral. And since civil government is not neutral, Christians are obligated to pursue a Christian understanding of law and civil government rather than piggybacking on non-Christian theories.
