Well, yes and no. My main quarrel with things Darwinian is their misapplication to extra-scientific arguments (as Dawkins perpetual attacks on organized religion). In that regard Smolin is actually representative of the baleful trend which makes the defense of honest evolutionary biology against religious obscurantism more difficult because it genuinely lends supports the view that evolutionary theory is a stalking horse for atheism.
