Outstanding. Please beat the darwin-idolatry and terror-science drum louder.
That'll bring in the votes.
You can review my posting history for past instances of drum-banging to figure this out, or you can just take me at face value when I tell you that I'm not here to bang that drum.
I AM here to make a casual observation of some behavioral similarities that do not speak well of the professionalism of those evidencing said behaviors.
My simple observation is that voices are being shouted down on the basis of their philosophical position, without regard to whether their data and/or the interpretation of it may be correct. In fact, it has grown so bad, that underlying philosphy has become a basis for rejection of research, peer review, theses...on and on. THAT isn't the unbiased world of science, that's one philosphy waging holy jihad against another.
AND, FWIW, it certainly isn't a libertarian world where everyman may speak his opinion with freedom and equanimity. Each is now prejudged upon the basis of his preceived philosophy and allowed/disallowed further platform from that point on.
P.S. -- With the greatest of respect, Thank You for your service to this Republic.
