The Genius of Charles Darwin; I’m Kylie’s Body Double

Artists are commanded to “show not tell”. Scientists are under a similar obligation, particularly when they appear on television. In this respect, Richard Dawkins, as Professor of the Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University, has a problem. Evolution by natural selection takes such a long time it does not permit eyewitnesses. In The Genius of Charles Darwin, he told a group of schoolchildren that it was like judging a murder case: no one saw the deed but there were millions of bits of circumstantial evidence to convict the culprit. It was an unfortunate comparison, a few days after the release of Barry George, but there you go.

Maybe this is why Darwinists are so confused. They have never really observed what they claimed.
