Quote

Darwinism is still very much alive, utterly dominating biology. Despite the fact that no one has ever been able to prove the creation of a single distinct species by Darwinist means, Darwinism dominates the academy and the media.

It's really amazing that in the age of unbelief, as a smart man called it, there isn't even more fraud. After all, with no God, there's no one to ever call you to account, and no accounting at all if you can get away with it.

My feeling is that Darwinism is only at best a partial solution, and an extremely dangerous partial solution.

The banks are not lending, at least from what I see. They were so wild and reckless back in the good times that they got burned terribly.
