American Evolution Teacher 

Once upon a time, creationists were able to publish articles 
explaining their position in The American Biology Teacher (see, 
e.g., "Evolution and the Scientific Method" by John Moore, ABT, 35: 
23, 1973). Sadly, those days are long gone, but that doesn't mean 
that creation/evolution topics have disappeared from the pages of 
ABT. In fact, hardly an issue is published without at least one 
article on the subject (from the evolutionary perspective). Here
is a sample from just the first three months of 1987:

Callaghan, Catherine A. "Instances of Observed Speciation" ABT,
49 (1): 34-35, January 1987. (Callaghan writes, "I have cited 
several instances of observed speciation...They should also 
silence at least one common creationists argument against 
evolution.") [ We don't have much question about speciation, 
actually, and agree with Callaghan that good evidence exists for 
the phenomenon. We doubt, however, that speciation alone is 
sufficient for macroevolution. Ed.] [( It is. D.R.)]

Hopson, James A. "The Mammal-like Reptiles" ABT, 49 (1): 16-26, 
January 1987. (Hopson, an anatomist at the University of Chicago, 
writes, "...I conclude that the set of relationships set out in
[this article] is strongly corroborated in its essentials, and
that the mammal-like reptiles are demonstrated to be the
morphologically transitional forms that evolutionists claim them
to be" (p. 24).)

Johnson, Ronald L. and E.E. Peeples. "The Role of Scientific
Understanding in College: Student Acceptance of Evolution" ABT,
49 (2): 93-98, February 1987. (Johnson and Peeples, both at the
Univ. of Northern Colorado, surveyed undergraduates in the West
North Central states and concluded that college students "have a
low understanding of science." Surprised?)

Woodward, Arthur and David L. Elliott . "Evolution and Creationism
in High School Textbooks" ABT , 49 (3): 164-170, March 1987.

Nickels, Martin D. "Human Evolution: A Challenge for Biology
Teachers" ABT , 49 (3); 143-148, March 1987.

Is it too much to hope that the editors of ABT would ever allow
creationist back into the journal? We wonder...
