Re: granting full access to JAD
Iano, I think one reason for the silence is that the simple facts John points out, such as the fossil record being at odds with NeoDarwinism, are irrefutable.
Yes, quite right. They are irrefutable because they are philosophical "facts" and not empirical facts. It would be closer to standard terminology to say that they are unfalsifiable.
Note that this discussion is off-topic. This is not supposed to be a debate thread, nor is it supposed to be a thread to discuss other threads.
