WHERE THERE'S A WILL, THERE'S A WHALE . . .

off the Gal�pagos Islands while gathering his research
before writing "Origin of Species."

As you all know, there's currently a heated debate in the sci news
groups about what Charles Darwin really said about the evolution of
the eye.
<
It's time this matter is cleared up -- simply and concisely -- once
and for all.
<
(Actually, I thought I had ended all the confusion back on Saturday,
May 11, 1996, when a pseudo-scientist named Michael Clark accused me
of misquoting Darwin. He had the balls to say I used only a portion
of Darwin's quote.

<
=================================
<
Here's what I said that Darwin said:
<
"To suppose that the eye (with so many parts all working
together) . . . could have been formed by natural selection seems, I
freely confess, absurd in the highest degree."
<
===================================
<
Here's what Charles Darwin REALLY said:
<
"To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for
adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different
amounts of light, or the correction of spherical and chromatic
aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I
freely confess, absurd in the highest degree. When it was first said
that the sun stood still and the world turned around, the common sense
of mankind
declared the doctrine false; but the old saying of Vox populi, vox
Dei, as every philosopher knows, cannot be trusted in science. Reason
tells me, that if numerous gradations from a simple and imperfect eye
to one complex and perfect can be shown to exist, each grade being
useful to its possessor, as is certainly the case; if further, the eye
ever varies and
the variations be inherited, as is likewise certainly the case and if
such variations should  be useful to any animal under changing
conditions of life, then the difficulty of believing thata perfect and
complex eye could be formed by natural selection, though insuperable
by our imagination, should not be considered as subversive of the
theory. How a nerve comes to be sensitive to light hardly concerns us
more than how life itself originated; but I may remark that, as some
of the lowest organisms, in which nerves cannot be detected, are
capable of perceiving light, it does not seem impossible that certain
sensitive elements in their bar code should 'become aggregated and
developed into nerves, endowed with this special sensibility."

<
================================
<
I thought I said what Darwin had said but David Iain Greig said what I
said wasn't what Darwin really had said because he said Darwin had
more to say than what I said he had said, then Steve Vickers of the UK
butts in and ays HE knows what Darwin really said, claiming what I
said he said wasn't what Darwin really had said, so I said, 'Okay,
I'll say what they said
about what Darwin really said, since I suppose that this is indeed
what he had said, even though I really don't know for sure if he had
actually said it, but this is what they say he had said.

Up Your's, Douche Brain!

(Folks, excuse the interruption!)
<
==============================
<
Actually, it really doesn't matter what Darwin had said or what these
fellas said he had said -- or what they say I said or didn't say --
since what I said, whether Darwin said it or not, isn't something that
really had to be said. Perhaps Darwin said what he said because he
felt he had to say it -- he certainly was entitled to say what he
wanted to say. But by saying what they say
he had said, he actually said more than he should've said. Of course,
IF Darwin DID say what he felt he needed to say -- like what these
fella said he had said -- critics could later say he had nothing to
say even though he indeed had said it.

JOSE, CAN YOU SEE?

"YES, I can see CLEARLY now, Mr. Conrad Your discoveries of petrified
remains -- SOME HUMAN -- between coal veins simply boggles the mind."

Ed Conrad is an old pro at destroying Established Science's erroneous
paradigms. Here, he holds a portion of a petrified hominid mandible
(jawbone) that he found between anthracite veins, proving that man is
as old as coal and therefore  multi-millions of years older than
science claims.

distinct likeness to a human skull.
