Dennett annoyed at agnostics

Posted in Science & Religion at 12:18 pm by nemo

From Dennett

Have you noticed how self-proclaimed (and self-satisfied) agnostics often sneer at us arrogant, over-confident atheists without expressing any parallel contempt for the Pope, Rick Warren, the imams, and so on for their similar if opposite avowals of certainty? In the future I plan to insist on agnostics being equal-opportunity sneerers.

This is complete nonsense. How has Dennett measured this? He feels annoyed at agnostics because they have a more sensible attitude than atheists.
Agnostics are a variable lot, some are religious, some not.
It is possilbe to be an agnostic religionists, and/or an agostic near-atheist.

The problem with atheism is that you can’t negate ‘god’ without defining it/that. Further the belief in atheism, wrongly and unnecessarily, always leads to a set of views about the unverse that are false.
It is safer to hang loose and not jump to conclusions.

Darwin’s delay

Posted in Evolution at 12:12 pm by nemo

Darwin agonizing over origin??

Interesting input here, but I think a close reading of Roy Davies’ The Darwin Conspiracy might suggest the real answer: Darwin couldn’t make his theory work. After 1855 when Wallace began to converge on the theory and wrote letters to Darwin, the material of Origin began to crystallize

Enezio E. de Almeida Filho said,

Steven Newton should have done his homework before writing that Darwin agonized over whether or not to publish On the Origin of Species:

MIND THE GAP: DID DARWIN AVOID PUBLISHING HIS THEORY
FOR MANY YEARS?

by
JOHN VAN WYHE*

Christ’s College, Cambridge CB2 3BU, UK

It is widely believed that Charles Darwin avoided publishing his theory of evolution for many years. Many explanations have been proposed to identify Darwin’s reasons or motives for doing so. This essay demonstrates that Darwin’s delay is a recent historiographical theme for which there is no clear evidence, and indeed is overwhelmingly contradicted by the historical evidence. It is also shown that Darwin’s belief in evolution was not a secret before publication. Instead of a man afraid of his secret theory’s being revealed to his prejudiced contemporaries, it is demonstrated that Darwin was understandably very busy and began his species book when he had completed work in hand, just as he had intended all along. This essay therefore rewrites a fundamental chapter in the story of Darwin’s life and work as usually told.

Keywords: Charles Darwin; evolution; ‘Darwin’s delay’; historiography

What Makes Us Human? Studies of Chimp and Human DNA May Tell Us

Saffron

Consider saffron
It’s hard to produce and more costly than gold, but there’s nothing else like it. How do you use saffron in your kitchen?
——————–

It’s the stigma of a very pretty crocus native to a strip of west Asia. The modern plant is sterile, the hard-won result of cross-breeding and human-led Darwinism. Every year, people have to dig it up, split the bulb-like corms that form part of its root and replant them. The flowers bloom in October, pushing out two or three fragile, wispy stigmas that you can only harvest by hand, and pickers work through the night to catch these at their coy, alluring best.

OIACDI also recently published a book, Diseño Inteligente: Hacia Un Nuevo Paradigma Científico,” which contains articles by leading ID thinkers like William Dembski, Jonathan Wells, Michael Behe, and Stephen Meyer translated into Spanish.

North America’s First Peoples More Genetically Diverse Than Thought, Mitochondrial Genome Analysis Reveals
ScienceDaily (June 28, 2010) — The initial peopling of North America from Asia occurred approximately 15,000-18,000 years ago. However, estimations of the genetic diversity of the first settlers have remained inaccurate. In a report published online in Genome Research, researchers have found that the diversity of the first Americans has been significantly underestimated, underscoring the importance of comprehensive sampling for accurate analysis of human migrations.

Physics of the ‘Bends’: New Study Helps Explain Decompression Sickness
ScienceDaily (June 28, 2010) — As you go about your day-to-day activities, tiny bubbles of nitrogen come and go inside your tissues. This is not a problem unless you happen to experience large changes in ambient pressure, such as those encountered by scuba divers and astronauts. During large, fast pressure drops, these bubbles can grow and lead to decompression sickness, popularly known as “the bends.”
