And this beats der Fuehrer? So World War II was for nothing? Wow.
The list’s author tried to cover his base by asserting that his 10 through to 1 list order isn’t supposed to mean anything. Just an accident with numbers, like the universe itself?
Lists can be fun. So here’s the contest: List the ten most significant ID books of the last 25 years, and for the first three, give a brief explanation of what you think makes the book significant.
The prize is a copy of The Nature of Nature , he must-have collection of the best on both sides of the ID controversy
Contest judged Saturday July 9.
A student essay contest with a money prize will be announced shortly. Watch for details.
