If you want to know what is wrong with Darwinism, you must start by asserting a free right to the Internet.

Tenured Darwinists will advance lots of reasons for doubting the value of freedom. They don’t believe in it anyway.

Robert @ 5:
Yes i think a free speech thing like the internet is a threat to a good establishment. Speech in history has rewarded bad guys as well as good guys. Any establishment can be overthrown by words trur or false.
The real problem with the sheer amount of information available on the Internet is that people have difficulty determining exactly which words are true and which are false. That's why critical thinking skills are necessary.
Evolutionism , using free speech overthrew some kind of creationism that was the norm in old Engkand. So a bad and wrong idea over threw a less wrong idea. (Its wasn’t YEC ruling) words are powerful period.
Free speech means that everyone is entitled to have an opinion about a subject and to make that opinion public, whether it's the correct opinion or not. Darwin's idea may have been wrong but, based on the concept of free speech (and free will), individuals have to decide whether or not they believe it based on the data presented to them. Barb
Barb. I do want it free. I do. i agree its rightly a threat to the bad guys. its a present evil establishment but thats a big subject. Yes i think a free speech thing like the internet is a threat to a good establishment. Speech in history has rewarded bad guys as well as good guys. Any establishment can be overthrown by words trur or false. Evolutionism , using free speech overthrew some kind of creationism that was the norm in old Engkand. So a bad and wrong idea over threw a less wrong idea. (Its wasn't YEC ruling) words are powerful period. Its just a great conclusion that probability is on the side of the good guys where free speech is allowed. Two out of three perhaps.! Robert Byers
Robert @ 3: What threat is knowledge to good establishments? And what differentiates an evil establishment from a good one? And why wouldn't you want the Internet to be free? Whom do you propose shuld be in charge of it? Barb
Knowledge and connections is always a threat to evil or good establishments. name your cause of the past and imagine what they could of done with the internet. In proposing or opposing matters. The modern nOrth american establishment is evil and must or should be afraid of the internet. They are fools to allow it to be free. I'm not sure but it might destroy all the evil conclusions they now try to rule us with. Surely evolutionists see creationism on the internet as a threat. It gets by barriers. Robert Byers
