The Royal Society has come under widespread criticism in the press since its Director of Education was forced to step down over creationism. Publications across the political spectrum are united in defence of Professor Michael Reiss, who succumbed to a campaign by Fellows of the Society who wished to have him removed. Why did Reiss have to resign? -- The Guardian The Royal Society has treated Michael Reiss badly -- The Times The Royal Society is sadly unenlightened on creationism -- The Daily Telegraph Secular Inquisition at the Royal Society -- The Spectator
