Evolution is Crap, there I said it! (page 17)

FlighingHigh,

Dawkins is hung out to lunch.

If you want to read the definitive explanation on fossils and how life arrived it’s covered in Darwin’s Doubt, by S.C. Meyer.

Reviews are compelling, it’s a game changer.

The bomb!

DARWIN’S DOUBT

THE EXPLOSIVE ORIGIN OF ANIMAL LIFE AND

THE CASE FOR INTELLIGENT DESIGN

BLURBS

Dr. Meyer makes it clear that these well-documented facts of paleontology pose a serious challenge to Darwin’s theory, the view that has held sway in biology (and well beyond) for nearly 150 years. The issue on the table is not now, nor has it ever been, the fact of evolution (change over time); the issue has always been the mechanism of evolution – is it blind and undirected or is it under the control of an intelligence that had a goal in mind? That’s the nub of the question, and in Darwin’s Doubt, Stephen Meyer has masterfully laid out one of the most compelling lines of evidence for the latter. -William S. Harris
PhD, Professor, Sanford School of Medicine, University of South Dakota

Stephen Meyer’s new book Darwin’s Doubt represents an opportunity for bridge-building, rather than dismissive polarization — bridges across cultural divides in great need of professional, respectful dialog — and bridges to span evolutionary gaps. -Dr. George Church
Professor of Genetics, Harvard Medical School, and author of Regenesis

Darwin’s Doubt is an intriguing exploration of one of the most remarkable periods in the evolutionary history of life—the rapid efflorescence of complex body plans written in the fossils of the Burgess Shale . . . No matter what convictions one holds about evolution, Darwinism, or intelligent design, Darwin’s Doubt is a book that should be read, engaged, and discussed. -Dr. Scott Turner
Professor of Biology, State University of New York, author of The Tinkerer’s Accomplice: How Design Emerges from Life Itself

Stephen Meyer elegantly explains why the sudden appearance of animal forms in the Cambrian period gave Darwin pause. He also demonstrates, based on cutting-edge molecular biology, why explaining the origin of animals is now not just a problem of missing fossils, but an even greater engineering problem at the molecular level. With mathematical precision, he shows why the neo-Darwinian mechanism cannot produce the genetic information and novel proteins—or systems for regulating their expression—that are required to build new animals.

An excellent book and a must read for anyone who wants to gain understanding of the very real—though often unreported—scientific challenges facing neo-Darwinism. -Dr. Russell Carlson
Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Director of the Complex Carbohydrate Research Center, University of Georgia

Darwin’s Doubt is by far the most up-to-date, accurate, and comprehensive review of the evidence from all relevant scientific fields that I have encountered in more than forty years of studying the Cambrian explosion. An engaging investigation of the origin of animal life and a compelling case for intelligent design. Dr. Wolf-Ekkehard Lönnig
Senior Scientist Emeritus (Biologist) at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, Cologne, Germany

It is hard for us paleontologists, steeped as we are in a tradition of Darwinian analysis, to admit that neo-Darwinian explanations for the Cambrian explosion have failed miserably. New data acquired in recent years, instead of solving Darwin’s dilemma, have rather made it worse. Meyer describes the dimensions of the problem with clarity and precision. His book is a game changer for the study of evolution and points us in the right direction as we seek a new theory for the origin of animals.
-Dr. Mark McMenamin
Paleontologist at Mt. Holyoke College and author of The Emergence of Animals

Darwin’s Doubt is another excellent book by Stephen Meyer. I particularly like his refutation of the concept of self-assembly of biological systems. The book explains the difference between specified complexity and order and shows that natural forces cannot generate the kind of complexity we see in living systems. I know from my personal work in the Systems Centre at Bristol University that complex systems do not create themselves but require an intelligent designer. Stephen Meyer has clearly listened to the arguments of those who are sceptical about intelligent design and has addressed them thoroughly. It is really important that Darwinists read this book carefully and give a response. -Professor Stuart Burgess
Professor of Design and Nature, Head of Mechanical Engineering at Bristol University

I spend my life reading science books. I’ve ready many hundreds of them over the years, and in my judgment Darwin’s Doubt is the best science book ever written. It is a magnificent work, a true masterpiece that will be read for hundreds of years.

-George Gilder
Writer, techno-utopian economist, and New York Times bestselling author

Meyer writes beautifully. He marshals complex information as well as any writer I’ve read . . . This book—and his body of work—challenges scientism with real science and excites in me the hope that the origins-of-life debate will soon be largely free of the ideology that has long colored it . . . a wonderful, most compelling read. -Dean Koontz
New York Times bestselling author

I call BS, QC. Darwin 1809-1882, Jerry Coyne, b. 1949. Darwin started the revelation but it is not anywhere near over. Scientists have successfully taken Darwin's work and built on it.

Heck, Galileo recanted for telling the truth, but that doesn't mean he was wrong.

Keep an open mind, but be sure the king really is wearing clothes.

QC as you have spammed this abominably awful piece of shit so many times let me tell you the big issue I have.

This book was given to the ID idiots and creationist "thinkers", who were enocouraged to make the above states as a form of review, months before it was published or given to proper scientists. This is a marketing excercise (which you fallen for hook, line and sinker), and intellectually dishonest.

It will not be a game changer it will hold the same old arguments as Meyer's one and only "peer reviewed" paper which was published by a creationist in an obscure journal that focused on taxonomy. This paper was subsequently pulled by the editors of the journal as it contained no new information, research, or conclusions.

Sorry jgnat,

Darwin knew the Cambrian explosion was the undoing of his theory. But he punted downstream hoping fossils somewhere would fix his problem. Finally, the 21 st century found the total truth.

This is reminiscent of Steady State theory being put to rest by Relativity’s Big Bang creation of the universe.

Evolution is Crap, there I said it!
