Scientists are a bunch of liars?

The State (Columbia SC newspaper) is running a letter from Rep. Bob Walker that essentially calls scientists liars.

Currently we teach only the science that supports evolution. Much of this science has unanimously been considered outdated, false, and even fabricated to show evolutionary strengths, while actually leaving out science that exposes weaknesses in the theory.

(emphasis mine)

Fabricated? There you have it – according to Bob Walker, science folks are a bunch of liars. Not what I wanted to read before teaching my science classes this morning…

Edited to add:

This just in: SC’s board of education doesn’t fall for it, rejects EOC changes to the science curriculum.

    Hi,

    I’m from Greenville, S.C. (The creationist, Mike Fair, is also from Greenville.)

    I’m a former creationist with a website that critiques I.D., See also my online article, “Why We Believe in a Designer” (totally tongue in cheek).
    Cheers!
