Abstract

AMSTERDAM—Well, not quite Kansas—after all, this is the country that legalized euthanasia and invented gay marriage. But when science and education minister Maria van der Hoeven recently announced plans to stimulate an academic debate about “intelligent design” (ID)—the movement that believes only the existence of a creator can explain the astonishing complexity of the living world—she triggered an uproar not unlike that raging in the sunflower state.
