The video above is a brilliant lecture by Neil deGrasse Tyson speaking on the persistent, ignorant theory of Intelligent Design. I think he hits the nail on the head here. Its necessary for scientists to take a more serious note of the influence of Creationists on the general public. Instead of trying to sweep things under the rug, they need to take the Creationists head-on and counter their outrageous claims. You can easily see Youtube videos with Creationist propaganda, and how convincingly some of the speakers are able to put forward their "theory" to a mostly scientifically challenged public.
