"Although to may mean to be sarcastic, you are correct, although it is weak science. Stronger than evolutionism, to be sure, but still weak science."

I realize you really, really, don't like evolution, but comparing the study of evolution to astrology is a bit over the top.

Hafta understand it before you can truthfully say you don't like it. There is a virulent opposition to, well...something, though.

. . . comparing the study of evolution to astrology is a bit over the top.

On the face of it the two appear disparate, but in essence they are not much different. I am willing to grant both a place in the realm of ideas. "Evolution" is a big word. There is a dab or two of truth to it. That's about all, unless one is devoted to a philosophy science does not typically operate with. In that case, evolution is the one and only answer.

Not very charitable of him, is it?
