In 'n diepte-artikel in die Beeld is die hele kwessie van Intelligente Ontwerp as altenatief vir die evolusieleer in skole bespreek.
Intelligente ontwerp (IO) het wetenskaplikes wat die evolusieleer as die enigste verduideliking vir die groot verskeidenheid van lewensvorme aanhang, aan die skarrel, sê Gideon Joubert.
Dit is omdat IO - die denkrigting dat lewe só kompleks is dat daar 'n intelligente verwekker móés gewees het - volgens hom so baie veld wen as 'n raamwerk vir die bestudering van die heelal se ontstaan en die ontwikkeling van lewe.

"Ek soek 'n nuwe kerk," sê 'n aangename, intelligente man met 'n goeie werk en 'n mooi gesin.
Hy was van kleins af betrokke by die kerk. Hy was jare lank ouderling. Hy het sy deel gedoen.
Maar nou is hy moeg daarvoor om sy tyd te mors in kerkraadsvergaderings wat redekawel oor: "die beker of kelkies?"

Dít was gister die oordeel van twee prominente kerkleiers - dr. Isak Burger van die AGS en dr. Nelus Niemandt van die NG Kerk - asook van vyf Oudtshoornse predikante by wie die protes teen die Polisiekarre se optrede by die Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees begin het.
