Hi ... Ok, so in the Spring of 2005 I graduated from Eugene Lang
College (at the New School University in New York City) with a
bachelor's degree in Social and Historical Inquiry. My concentration
was American History with emphasis on religion, science and American
culture.

My thesis/senior work is about the politicization of Darwinism in
British and American history. I looked at this social reality through
a detailed analysis of the movement against Darwin's theory. Because
this movement is a product of historical processes, I contextualized
the development of Darwin's theory, its initial reception in Great
Britain during the Victorian era, its emigration to the United States
after the Civil War and the socio-cultural and political effects it has
had here. I revealed foundation for Anti-evolutionism in philosophical
and theological anti-materialism and in the emergence and
reassertiveness of religious orthodoxy, American Protestant
Fundamentalism and evangelical revivalism. I also showed that, just
like the conservative movement it is a part of, modern American
Anti-evolutionism is a coalition-based political movement made up of
disparate and diverging factions. This, in turn, revealed why modern
Anti-evolutionism is a uniquely American institution; a fact
supplemented by the distinct relationship between religion, politics
and the state in this country.

I know, kind of a mouthful ... Well, I want to post it somewhere where
I think it'll be of use (I think it can be very useful, but am also
psyched to get some feedback), but am sort of concerned that it might
get lifted, in part or in full - or used without giving credit to ...
well ... me. What do you think I should do about this? I'd appreciate
any input at all. Thanks.

You could post it on a web site as a pdf and prevent it from being
downloaded. That is, it has read only access. You need to talk to your isp
about how to do that. Or you could allow it to be downloaded but make sure
the copyright notice is on the first page.

I'm not sure the t.o site has such a facility.
