International Aspects of Creationism/ID

Greetings all,I am Ukrainian currently living in the US. As I wrote in the "Is Creationism a Predominantly US..." thread, there are no Ukrainian creationists, at least among educated people. However, recently, two links were posted on a Ukrainian Web forum called "Maidan," referring to Ukrainian creationists. Here are these links (in Ukrainian, the text is in Cyrillic):http://www.cris-evol.com
http://nt-creaz.nm.ru/zvern-fulltext.htmThe first link is to a book, written, apparently, by a person with some education in biology, but with many references predominantly to US creationists. The second link is to a text of a letter, written by several Ukrainian scientists (some biologists, some non-biologists) and school teachers, addressed to the President of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, with a petition to do something about "amending" biology textbooks currently adopted in Ukraine. It struck me that among those things that the authors of the letter want to be "amended," there is some usual creationist nonsense about archeopterix being fully bird, etc.Richard

The second link is to a letter addressed, actually, to the Prime Minister of Ukraine, c/c'ed to the Minister of Education (not to the Pres. of the Natl. Acad. Sci.). Sorry for the inaccuracy. --R.
