Gould is dead. And I will not speak ill of the dead, but just state the facts. He was a self-proclaimed "great biologist" who perverted science to fit with his self-professed socialist world view.

In my opinion, that was his greatest flaw.

[Gondring]

I would emphasize the "self-proclaimed" and although I am geologist, not an evolutionary biologist, some of his stuff went so far out of line that even I could smell its stench.

One of the great ironies is that he attacked other biologists so strongly that many creationists were able to misportray the state of evolutionary theory as "in disarray" or "debatable"...
