Moral Absolutes Ping.

As I've been saying, Darwinist TOE is just a flapping corpse. Its adherents can enjoy the ride for a little longer; there's only a little time left for their screeching and censorship to successfully prevent the legitimate discussion of legitimate criticism. They're shoring up the defense of their citadel by attempting to prevent any debate (apostacy), but the doors are shaking.

It's really quite funny - if the TOE was defensible, they would welcome questions and criticisms in order to defeat them. But no, no questions allowed. Anyone who has doubts - reasonable, legitimate doubts - about neo-Darwinism, is by definition labeled a kook, a knuckledragger, a religious wacko (even if not religious) and not allowed into the discussion. Only saluting true believers allowed.

It's been an interesting theory.

Freepmail me if you want on/off this pinglist.

"Today, at the dawn of the new century, nothing is more certain than that Darwinism has lost its prestige among men of science. It has seen its day and will soon be reckoned a thing of the past. A few decades hence when people will look back upon the history of the doctrine of Descent, they will confess that the years between 1860 and 1880 were in many respects a time of carnival; and the enthusiasm which at that time took possession of the devotees of natural science will appear to them as the excitement attending some mad revel." Eberhard Dennert, At the Deathbed of Darwinism, 1904. (http://home.entouch.net/dmd/moreandmore.htm

It's now 2005. How long must we wait?

Like GWB should welcome questions and criticisms from Mother Sheehan?

Some questions and criticisms are not worth considering.
