Just what one would expect from the oxymoronically-named Discovery Institute.
This sickening attempt to link “Darwinism” (as if evolution were some kind of philosophy and not a scientific theory) to Hitler, which took “only” ten minutes in Expelled was pure squid’s ink, as is Klinghoffer’s column.
Darwin discovered a truth. It doesn’t matter what other crazy ideas he may have had. It doesn’t matter how much Darwin is quoted by genocidal maniacs. This is all a distraction from the truth: that evolution is the only scientific theory there is to explain speciation.
This smear attempt is really pathetic. I could fire back about how many people have been slaughtered in the name of every god ever invented and, if he were consistent, Klinghoffer would have to admit that religion is just as bad as so-called “Darwinism”. But he’s just squirming and squirting ink.
If he’s got an alternative theory to replace evolution, let’s hear it. Enough with the childish Hitler crap.
Well, the observant will notice that I left him a question in the comments. I don’t expect much of an answer.
The big disappointment for me is that he’s also invited to blog on The Corner.
Update:
Derb gives him an impassioned what-for.
