Doing the work that biologists aren't willing to do. "Physiologists"? How fine a hair do you want to split?

Physiologists are located in medical schools. Biology is a natural science.

Can you find out the name of the field in which Singer has "eminence"?

BWAHAHA! He's a utilitarian philosopher specializing in bioethics. Bioethics is a field of philosophy, not biology.

I'm frankly shocked you don't realize this.

Your arrogance is simply hilarious, given the astonishing fact you don't seem have the faintest clue about fields other than your own.

I have found in the past that you have a very unusual sense of humor. Mine is subtle. I make serious points when I mock and I am mocking when I am serious. I suppose it requires a mind that sees more than just the surface. Do you deny the early 20th century fascination with eugenics? Do you deny the biological basis for it? It seems biologists cannot take responsibility for the children they have fathered. Singer's work is in bioethics. His justifications, his way of seeing the world, his language is all biological. But why don't you discuss the very subject of the thread? Apparently, you only want to talk about me. It seems once a subdiscipline leaves the nest and sets up "medical" schools, their medicine was the result of immaculate research. But it is obvious that evolution is a subject whose subtleties can be grasped by the average junior high school student. And I know this because you have implied it.
