Science and Religion: A View from an Evolutionary Creationist/Theistic Evolutionist: Another "Beside the Point" Diatribe from the Discovery Institute

Great review of the insidious "Darwin's Dilemma" film made by the Discovery Institute at the bottom. Scary stuff.

  • Interestingly, at no point in this editorial, does West address why the scientific community is not supportive of the film. For one, there is evidence that the scientists interviewed for the film were questioned under false pretenses. The trailer for the film mentions interviews with Simon Conway Morris and James Valentine. Conway Morris is well known as a researcher in the Cambrian and an outspoken Christian. Laelaps recounts what Conway Morris says with regard to the interview for the film:
    ... I wouldn't know [how] they managed to obtain any such material nor if they did how they are able to use it without my permission. I certainly wouldn't give it ...
  • Secondly, does the content of the film belong in a science center? Biologist John Humphreys has a somewhat lengthy review of the film here. Here is what he thought of it:
    To draw this novel length critique of Darwin’s Dilemma to a close, let me re-emphasize that although lacking historical accuracy, scientific legitimacy and professional integrity the film’s production value and underlying truth-manipulating strategy make it a dangerous opponent to education and reason. The people behind the film are dishonest, unethical and immoral; they lie, doctor evidence and misrepresent science as a whole. In the process of attacking evolution, they falsify history and tear down the sciences of geology and chemistry.

    Though they are fundamentalists and propagandists, they are also cunning and well funded… Take caution.

Intéressant  ce site qui me rappelle la récente initiative de cartographier la blogosphère française. Ne cherchez pas le guide des égarés dessus, je n'y suis pas, à moins que je ne sois sous les eaux comme la ville d'Ys. Qui sait d'ailleurs si quelque courageux ne tentera pas de faire de même pour l'information documentation. Vu que le guide  des égarés existe depuis 1999, je pense pouvoir être quelque part en territoire africain non loin du désert du Kalahari près des Boshimen.
Comme beaucoup, j'aime la cartographie et les réflexions autour. La carte n'est pas le territoire quoiqu'une histoire de Borges nous conte la réalisation d'une carte grandeur nature.
Ici la carte du monde selon la recherche scientifique
