growing public opinion of evos
What such exchanges are increasingly producing is a growing mistrust and negative feelings towards evo proponents. Take the Meyer paper saga. Most evos here feel justified by the actions of the Smithsonian. Most non-evos are appalled by their actions.
How about the public?
Well, when you have liberal media such as the Washington Post calling it a witchunt by secular Darwinists, you know the game is up. Maybe not right away, but I suspect within about 9-10 years you will see a backlash in funding and many things towards evos (NeoDarwinists), and frankly, they've brought it on themselves as far as I am concerned.

Re: growing public opinion of evos
Their behaviour, characterized as a "witchunt" by the Washington Post, towards someone working there that published an ID paper.

Re: growing public opinion of evos
How anyone can read the emails and see the behaviour of the Smithsonian over this and still defend it is beyond me. Why take some time to look into the real facts for yourself instead of some evo propoganda paper. Keep in mind the Washington Post isn't a conservative, creationist dominated paper. When even they are denouncing mainstream evos at the Smithsonian, you know it had to be bad, very bad, as the email exchanges and attempts to defame and smear the guy showed.
