WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) - Christian activists have gone to Purdue University's main campus
to hand out 2,000 copies of Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species"
with a 50-page introduction intended to debunk his theory of
evolution.
The giveaway Thursday was part of a nationwide effort by
California-based minister Ray Comfort and actor Kirk Cameron to
distribute more than 100,000 copies of the book on university
campuses.
Pastor Jared Brothers of Stringtown Church of God in
Covington helped distribute the anti-Darwin book. He says the goal
is to get God's word out.
But Purdue senior Mike Brownstein says anyone who reads the
book will see through the introduction.
