You are correct. Isaiah thought the world was a round disc he didn't have it 100% correct but he still thought the world was round. Quite a big achievement because everyone in around 700 BC thought the world was flat and called him crazy.
As already stated, a disc is round and flat. If you go up on a high place and look around you, what does the area bounded by the horizon look like? That's right, round and flat. Hardly an achievement to notice that.

"In Darwin's day there was no rigid definition of the term "Darwinism," and it was used by opponents and proponents of Darwin's biological theory alike to mean whatever they wanted it to in a larger context."

No kidding ... lol.

I'm sure they didn't call it an -ism overnight.
Right... Huxley coined the term about five months after Darwin's Origin was published. I mean, you did read the link you provided...right?

I'll just chalk it up to more bs spam on your part then, chief.
Fine with me.

As long as you know what "Darwinism" is.

For the record, why didn't you answer pitabread's question?

Yeah, I know... it's you that hasn't read your own link, kemosahbe.
Someone asked what "Darwinism" is.

I linked them to what "Darwinism" is.

Is there a problem?

You're in the habit of linking to things you don't understand?

oh wait...
I don't have to understand it ... pitabread does.

It's the same thing as someone asking me what aestivation is, and I hand them a dictionary w/o even looking it up.

Someone who did know what it meant would know which dictionary gave the best definition.

Someone who didn't know what it meant would (normally) have the good sense to stay out of it.

I'm sure if I gave him the wrong answer you scientifically-minded educatees would have corrected it by now and given him the correct one.
