    I can recognize when someone I usually disagree with is right - and this is one of those times. Bravo.

    Covid vaccine 'concerns'...

    Good thing this is not a research outlet. Tell you what - feel free to take a look at the other 999 articles cited and point out a couple that do not fit this description (nothingburger). Then keep quiet on the subject.

    Disbelief in human evolution associated with greater prejudice and racism

    Oh shoot - I missed this thread... or maybe I just forgot about it... and started a new one on this. Can't hurt to bring it up again, I suppose.

    What about the Rothchilds????

    Rejection of evolution correlates with racism

    Then I guess these bible-lovers were just.... stupid? "... We hold as undeniable truths that the governments of the various States, and of the confederacy itself, were established exclusively by the white race, for themselves and their posterity; that the African race had no agency in their...

    The Danger of Creationism

    Not even a little. Curious if you have bothered to educate yourself on what the genetic code is - when last I saw you blabbering on the subject, you had no idea.

    Evolution is DEscriptive not PREscriptive

    Overly simplistic. Try reading this post to see how wrong you and you hero Gitt are about actual genetics. Nah. He is a creationist pushing a fantasy to the uninformed. I saw a talk by him once. Nice enough fellow. Thought he was talking to a collection of creationists. Was taken aback...

    What is this denial predicated on? Desires for it not to be?

    Evolution is DEscriptive not PREscriptive

    Ah, old Lee Spetner - he also, oddly, added his name to the group of numbskulls that tried to claim 1 of the 8 Archaeopteryx fossils available at the time was a forgery. So astounding was their "scientific" analysis, that it was eventually published. In a British photography magazine...

    Rejection of evolution correlates with racism

    Not a big surprise - one need only look at the darlings of the GQP. Disbelief in human evolution linked to greater prejudice and racism "Similarly, across the globe -- in 19 Eastern European countries, 25 Muslim countries and in Israel -- low belief in evolution was linked to higher biases...

    Evolution is DEscriptive not PREscriptive

    Even more obvious when anti-science types present the out of context quote about the extermination of 'savages'. To that end, I see that Weikart and the clowns at the DI continue to attack evolution by claiming Darwin was a racist. Doing so all but proves they've admitted that they cannot...

    On the nail: why is being human easier for you, than being a monkey is hard for me?

    Wow, strawman premise, and about 3 other logical fallacies. On top of the usual nonsensical spamming/trolling. Amazing.

    We’ve been reading Charles Darwin all wrong

    Yeah, quote mining. And not from anything of his that was presented as scientific.
