Authors of the book “What Darwin Got Wrong” have called Darwinism a religion.
“It’s a secular religion, for sure, an atheistic banner under which the white knights of scientific rationality rally in their fight against the forces of darkness. There are countless manifestations of this unwholesome religious Darwinian fervour, more than can be listed here.”
You would think if they had more sense they’d realize that proponents of the theory of evolution do not worship Darwin. We are willing to say that he was wrong on issues, if the evidence proves it. Not that any credible biologist will tell you the book “What Darwin Got Wrong” actually has any credible evidence to support their claims.
The authors also act as if there is some sort of incredible revelation in arguing that Darwin’s theory cannot explain the origins of life.
“It is very hard to dissuade them, to tell them that this process is indeed real and ubiquitous but cannot explain the origin of species, pace Darwin.”
Excuse my blunt language but, no shit. Fodor and Palmarini destroy their own credibility by bringing the origin of species argument up.
