Re: I can't even believe this. Entophile Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 10:33:47 PM
Some crackpot on the Telegraph is claiming that there is no evidence for evolution.


I didn't see anywhere in that article that the author claims that. I did see, however, a presentation by the author of "the top five arguments, on either side of this monumental disagreement."


The first "argument" against evolution. The author doesn't even cite anything or make any quotes. It looks like he just pulled it all out of his ass. Granted, he's supposed to be playing devil's advocate, but he should be giving REAL arguments, not strawmen.
Nefarious as ever

The author used the phrase "proven theories." Ergo, their argument is invalid. *NM* Craig - 14/09/2009 01:11:51 AM 386 Views
