Evolutionists Don’t Take Kindly to Criticism

You can’t criticize evolution because that would be against the law. It’s incredible, but evolutionists legislate the truth of their theory. They’ll sue, lie to judges, falsify histories, oppose academic freedom, control funding, blackball skeptics and create laws that not only enforce evolution but outlaw even criticism of their non scientific ideas.

You want to start your baby out right … with a Darwinian pediatrician …

All the rage now, we hear. In “Darwin’s Pediatricians” (Evolution News & Views, April 19, 2012), Heather Zeiger observes, New Scientist has an interview with Dr. Paul Turke, a “Darwinian” pediatrician.

They prove this with all kinds of religious arguments, and then blame us for being religious. Nice work if you can get it. Read More ›
