You can't help but notice that there is a very vocal sort of a little clique of evolutionists on FreeRepublic, and there has always been a question in a lot of people's minds as to whether or not the theory of evolution is in any way compatible with conservatism.
This new book ("Godless") of Ann Coulter's should pretty much settle the issue.
Ann does not mince words, and she has quite a lot to say about evolution:
"Liberals' creation myth is Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, which is about one notch above scientology in scientific rigor. It's a make-believe story, based on a theory which is a tautology, with no proof in the scientists laboratory or the fossil record, and that's after 150 years of very determined looking. We wouldn't still be talking about it but for the fact that liberals think evolution disproves God....
It gets better from there, in fact a lot better. Ann provides a context for viewing the liberal efforts to shut down everything resembling debate on the subject in courtrooms and makes a general case that it is the left and not the right, which is antithetical to science in general. Anybody interested in this question of American society and the so-called theory of evolution should have a copy of this book
800?
Spin.
"I support the teaching of only science in science classrooms . . . (me)
Then you should support the teaching of astrology in science classrooms, right alongside Darwinism and eugenics.(Uncle Fester)"
Troll someone else Fester. :)
Sorry, natural selection is still not a tautology.
But maybe the sea animals attached themselves to the pyrite instead of the other way around.
Exactly. If the pamphlets are already printed up, just keep trolling for suckers.

Checking in. I see this flaccid and useless Thread has been relegated to the category it so truly deserves.
Ooohhh.... Suicide by cop... can't watch/gotta watch/can't watch/gotta watch! :^D
When oxygen began being released into the atmosphere there were a lot of iron compound depositions, but I think pyrite formation still happens in anoxic, sulfur-rich environments. Those shells were probably down in the muck in a stagnant area.

Your assertion doesn't make it so. Behaviorally, most public advocates of neo-Darwinism invoke a tautological understanding of natural selection.
Instead of making assertions without proof, you, yourself, in this forum, do what Popper observed was possible, and reformulate natural selection in a way far from tautological. (There are plenty of different ways to do it. Just do a service to your cause and present one.)
Hmmmmm, doesn't this apply to FRMail also?
Yes, one of the aims of the many who are openly hostile to Christianity is to dismiss the bible as merely stories from a goat herding culture. First ridicle it, make it irrelevant and then what, outlaw it? Nothing would make a certain segment of our liberal atheist society happier. Already we see that anything can be taught in our schools, and starting in elementary school too. Teachers can "educate" young students in the Muslim religion, they can celebrate Kwanza, and they can learn that we are all descended from a bad case of the goo. But mention the name of Jesus Christ and not only are people openly embarrassed for you, but there could be dire consequences if you are one of those teachers.
The ten commandments are lying in the gutter, pitched out because they are useless? no, but because man can govern himself! He is "good" and moral and has developed his own high ethical moral compass! No need to have any revelations from that God character hanging over us, it was meant for nomadic goat keepers!
Where will we be moved next?
Wow, that was pretty good. And right to the point. Amen and Amen.
I don't know what's lower ... the backroom or chat?
Sure. Being a perfect replicator would be a very boring situation.
