[QUOTE="GoSeminoles!, post: 19312570"] From the NY Times; I was not aware of even this one. Apparently, Behe is referring to: Behe M.J., Snoke D.W. 2004. Simulating evolution by gene duplication of protein features that require multiple amino acid residues. [i]Protein Sci[/i][i]13[/i]:2651-2664. Does anyone know what this article says? And why would they not be? If I write an article saying my falling apple experiment resulted in an apple falling to the ground, it will be treated in a ho-hum manner by those reviewing submissions to the scientific journals. But if I report that instead of falling, the apple appeared to fly around the meadow on its own power before jetting into space, then I imagine my article would be reviewed much more skeptically. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, Mr. Behe. Neither you nor anyone else has supplied any (haven't read your Protein Science paper, though). Behe is [url="http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CB/CB200_2.html"]woefully wrong [/url]on this one. This guy is an academic hack. Fortunately, I have good news. Not only did I save a lot of money on my car insurance, the judge's body language suggests he's not impressed by Behe: Body language seldom lies. Unfortunately, there is also this from the [url="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/17/AR2005101701579.html"]Washington Post[/url]: Meanwhile, South Korea takes the lead in stem cell research. If we eschew real science in our public schools, what will it mean for our economic future? The primary economic advantage the US enjoys, for now, is being the world's engine of science and technology. If we disrupt the supply of home-grown scientific talent by yielding even a millimeter to pseudoscientific wackjobs, then this advantage will evaporate within a generation. [/QUOTE]
