Everything bad thing that >happens IS NOT (notice I am shouting) Reagan's fault! >Allen England at AT&T Bell Laboratories, Naperville, IL I don't know for a fact that Reagan is a creationist (or even religious, for that matter), but during his 1980 campaign he did say that creationism should be given "equal time" with evolution in our public schools. I think that Reagan would say just about anything to appeal to the right-wing, fundamentalist voters, but, fortunately, he has done relatively little for them.
