England's senior christian cleric says creationism and ID shouldn't be taught in schools:

then the teacher goes, there is this alternate theory called creationism which suggests the world was created in 7 days about 6000 years ago.
Any questions? No, OK, now lets get on with the REAL world.

Must say, though, I do like Rowan Williams, he's always struck me as a good man. Very sensible. I hope he gets to make all the modernising changes to the church that he wishes.
