The story by J.M. Hirsch, Associated Press, on the Rev. Paul Norwalt’s school in Merrimack, N.H. (Metro, Aug. 14), contains a serious distortion. Hirsch describes creationism as “the belief that God created all life and matter.” That is a central belief of all Christians (along with Jews and Muslims), including thousands of legitimate scientists.
The special claim of creationism is that God began human life directly, without any earlier evolutionary stages.
