Bad design
The argument from
bad design
is one of the strongest arguments that living things are
evolved, not designed.
Charles Darwin
- Charles Darwin
- On the Origin of Species (1859)
-
Final chapter:
"There is grandeur in this view of life
...
that ...
from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being evolved."
- Why I hate the
"Darwin Awards":
- I really hate the
"Darwin Awards"
that
laugh at the death of innocent people.
They are sick and cruel and pathetic enough as it is.
But abusing the name of a great genius is unforgiveable.
- Unlike many geniuses, Darwin was a nice guy, and very much a role model.
Read a good biography of him
and you will see.
If there is one thing he would have hated more than "creationism"
in the modern world,
it would be the
"Darwin Awards".
He would have absolutely hated these disgusting awards
that abuse his name.
Evolutionary biology conflicts with some people's
religious beliefs,
in a way that most branches of science do not.
As a result, it is the object of controversy for some people
- a controversy caused entirely by this conflict,
not by the science.
If you did not have such religious beliefs, you would not find the science remotely controversial.
