Oh yeah, that other guy, discoverer of the double helix and author of the timeless book by the same name, good old Nobel Prize winning what's-his-name.
Civility? I waa aware to a degree of his accomplishments.....just couldn't think of the name for a sec, and yes I saw the smiley.
Whoa, that's pretty funny, pretending to be offended by someone poking fun at you for being forgetful. I'm sure glad you're joking, because otherwise it would mean the next stage in the illness would be hearing voices inside your head.
Oh, and really the thing that they only were talking of a personal God is a stretch. If that was the case, why not say that?
Uh, they did say that. Watson said, "If it`s a personal god who interferes with our lives and listens to our prayers and aware of our existence, I really -- I can only mention one person that I know who believes that, who`s a serious scientist." See you're own excerpt at
Message 32.
So what Wilson and Watson were saying was that they believe that Darwinian evolution makes it impossible to believe in a personal God.
Which just shows that it's possible to make an advance in a field of science without having a clue about what science actually is, it's significance, nor what reasonable logic is either. I suppose this is the result of the specialized nature of science, but it's still quite pathetic and delusional on their part.
Wow, another joke, you're on a roll!
