On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin talks with Mike Edenburn, a resident of New Mexico who is concerned that the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science co-sponsored “Darwin Day” events that promoted anti-religious content — and then tried to cover it up.

What You Can Do:

Concerned New Mexico residents will be meeting with museum staff on Wednesday, July 2, to express worries about this situation and demand that the museum avoid viewpoint discrimination and endorsement of atheism in future Darwin Day events. You can assist their efforts by contacting the museum and making your voice heard promptly:

  • Get in touch with Charles Walter, Executive Director of the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science, via e-mail at Charles.Walter@state.nm.us.
  • Call customer service at the museum at 505-841-2869.
