I just read an article on the lack of science progress in the muslim world. Teaching Darwinian evolution is against the law, in Saudi Arabia.

Causation and correlation are different things.

Anyway, from what I can tell, Saudi Arabia and the United States have this in common: it is against the law to teach alternative theories of origins. What was the original point? Who was being compared to the Taliban (who were from Afghanistan as far as I recall, but I may have gotten that from a source who believed in God, so disregard).
