I know that I am violating a bit of the weave in this thread here, but in some defense to the thread-head; I know that I have not in reality (for who is to say that posting here is reality. It exists. I give it that. etc)"survived" Will Provine's class "Evolution and Ethics". Oh, I got a C- for as much work as would go into an A for Biochem but it does seem to me now that my Religion was the reason that I could not survive despite me being "fit" to discuss all of the issues raised and besides the point I had been really thinking about the content for years. I came to the decided that GOD controls my thought and I was LEARNING evolutionary theory on an organismal basis that still supported this belief.
There is a part of this course where Will being A historian was becoming a biologist on the same campus that worked against my allready formed notion to any being dynamical that still seems to mean that my materialism is confused with the common naturalism. Naturalism discusses only ONE nature while there are many material possibilites during the only process of biological change but to Believe that ONLY the brain remained OUTSIDE this understanding was something I could not believe and did not. Something like this is what caused the wedge and a falling out to come between the historian and the biologist. You decide who I am talking about.
