Darwinism as pseudo-science
from The Legacy Of Darwinism
The most outrageous aspect of the Darwin debate is the way the pseudo-science of Darwin on natural selection is pressed into service as science.
All the yak yak about science and what is the reality: insufficient observation to prove a theory that is then pressed into service as metaphysics.
A new standard of observation Claims for natural selection are all too conveniently pressed into service to cover over the absence of close-range empirical data, and drive out considerations of macroevolution, which might be difficult to observe. This certainly holds true for human evolution, whatever the case for earlier eras of evolution. If we discover high-speed macro processes in history that can produce totalized cultural transformations at the level of centuries and less, witness the Axial Age , the Darwinian focus on selectionism is up in the air at once. The true record of real evolution may have been lost altogether. The observational standard for the Axial Age, a sub-pattern of the eonic effect, is that of centuries or less.
