Critical Response
The pro-intelligent design organization, the Discovery Institute, states that Science, Evolution, and Creationism "completely misrepresent intelligent design" and "exaggerates the success of evolution". Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, argues that Science, Evolution, and Creationism "ignores" criticism of "Darwinism".
In an interview on NBC, Glenn Branch, deputy director of the National Center for Science Education, called the publication "a definitive statement from a leading scientific authority about the scientific bankruptcy of intelligent design creationism."
Praise for the publication was received from Lawrence Krauss and editorials in Nature, New Scientist, and several newspapers.

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or response:
“It would be easy ... to regard the whole of world 3 as timeless, as Plato suggested of his world of Forms or Ideas.... I propose a different view—one which, I have found, is surprisingly fruitful. I regard world 3 as being essentially the product of the human mind.... More precisely, I regard the world 3 of problems, theories, and critical arguments as one of the results of the evolution of human language, and as acting back on this evolution.”
—Karl Popper (1902–1994)
“From time to time I listen to what you are saying, just in case a response is needed.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
