In other words, the ID proponents cheated. Is anyone surprised?
A fairly long demolition of the paper can be found here.
John Locke - The problem with the Meyer paper is that it was not peer reviewed in the manner established by the Biological Society of Washington (the governing body for the periodical). This is confirmed in a statement they issued on September 7 last.
JFK_Lib - YEs, the statement says in part:
BS Wash - We endorse the spirit of a resolution on Intelligent Design set forth by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (www.aaas.org/news/releases/2002/1106id2.shtml), and that topic will not be addressed in future issues of the Proceedings. We are reviewing editorial policies to ensure that the goals of the Society, as reflected in its journal, are clearly understood by all.
JFK_Lib - In other words, they refuse to discuss the merits of ID at all and rely on a dogmatic approach instead. Any future submissions we can only imagine will be dead on arrival if they deem it tainted by ID, and the author submitting it will be tried for heresy and burned at the stake.
John Locke - In other words, the ID proponents cheated. Is anyone surprised?
JFK_Lib - Ummm, the BS WAsh failed to spike an ID paper that went through the normal process, or the BS Wash failed to properly peer review an article submitted to their own publication, and yet all this proves that the ID proponents *cheated*? LOL! Talk about a predetermined judgement!

JFK_Lib - Yes, all quite one-sided. Where is the ID response? None at all, which is hardly a *discussion* of anything, but merely Darwinists carrying on a monologue that they call 'debate'? YEah, and some of the fair and balanced remarks from the comments show the hysterical and shrill 'review' of Meyer:
"My favorite example which shows what a moron Mr. Meyer is can be found..."
Ah, yes, Meyer is obviously a moron. How positively scholarly.
"I wish people would spend as much effort trying to debunk my theory as they do with these obviously flawed inferiors."
Heh...
"I moved a bunch of comments not directly related to the content and criticism of Meyer 2004 to the “Bathroom Wall”."
Heheheheh.....well, he seems to have missed quite alot of it....
