A friend draws our attention to a current festival in Britain, “How the light gets in,” with presenters in the sci tech area such as:

Steve Fuller, one of the few philosophers of science who has tried to write seriously about the ID community (Dissent over Descent)

Massimo Pigliucci (one of the Altenberg 16, back when challenging Darwinism wasn’t normal) “This morning, Massimo Pigliucci poses the radical question: does science need evidence?”*

Rupert Sheldrake, who challenged Darwinism back in the late 1960s, when it was the sign of a sick mind.

Denis Noble, who, many say, is the point man behind the rethinking evolution project (here).

See how many others you spot.

* An attempted non-radical answer: Not if science doesn’t need funding.
