He still refuses to admit he is lying and dissembling like a Clinton. How he can justify this blatant prevarication with his alleged Christianity is beyond me. It's plain to anybody who reads what Popper wrote that he:

1) Said that natural selection is testable
2) It is not a tautology (Popper thought it was earlier because, as he admits, he misunderstood it.)
3) He never equated evolution with *religion*; he was quite explicit about what he meant by metaphysical research programme:

"I call these research programmes 'metaphysical' also because they result from general views of the structure of the world and, at the same time, from general views of the problem situation in physical cosmology. I call them 'research programmes' because they incorporate, together with a view of what the most pressing problems are, a general idea of what a satisfactory solution of these problems would look like." (page 161).

Apparently he thinks it is OK to Lie for the Lord.
