For he's a jolly good fellow

[qanazir]

To Darwin!

The greatest biologist of all time!(you don't even come close Linne.)

[rozeboosje]

Meh! Linne was a Cr. Cr. Cre.

No. I can't say it. But he WAS!

[adorianvlad]

Truth of the matter is, Pino, the history of science has many twisted truths.

I would not rush into giving all the credit to Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton, Shakespeare (see Francis Bacon, Christopher Marlowe, and Edward de Vere, the Earl of Oxford) , Bill Gates (seecGary Kildall) , or many other ultra famous people.

There is some evidence that suggest these folks and a whole lot more have stolen from other scientists.

Money could always buy anything and these folks were/are all filthy rich.

[rozeboosje]

You certainly do have a point, but Darwin for one was always acutely aware of the debt he owed to others.

That aside, there is nothing wrong with celebrating science for the endeavour that it is, even whilst accepting that the scientists who participate in it are only human with all the ordinary human weaknesses we all share.

[qanazir]

I am still amused by the fact that the theory of natural selection was first publiced in a book on ship building.

[rozeboosje]

Huh?

[Knowntje]

I think the concept of birthdays is evolved by random mutations and natural selections of other days :)

[FrodenOrange]

Er is er een jarig hoera hoera en daarom zingen wij blij.

En nu nog maar een paar nachtjes slapen om de creationistische folder te ontvangen in Nederland :)

[sometimesido99]

Happy Darwin day :)

Een creationistische folder met Andries Knevel op de cover zou wel lachen zijn.

[Terrencje]

"Een creationistische folder met Andries Knevel op de cover zou wel lachen zijn. "

VANDAAR dat ie uitgesteld is hehehe :)

[Knowntje]

ge wil toch nie beweren da andries knevel een creationist is? verrek ik dacht die zitte alleen in amerika

[FrodenOrange]

Ik bedoelde eigenlijk de folder van creatie . info

Die valt deze maand ben 6 miljoen mensen op de deurmat. Er zit helaas geen foto met Knevel. Maar hij staat zo vol fouten dat "dr" Kent Hovind hem geschreven zou kunnen hebben.

[rozeboosje]

zeg alsjeblieft dat het niet waar is. Echt?!

Wie is "creatie" punt info? Wie zit daar achter?

[FrodenOrange]

Ik weet niet wie daar achter zit er zijn meerdere creatie sites actief in Nederland, meestal een tak van een buitenlandse organisatie (AiG) of een collectief van Nederlandse kerken ed. Volgens mij is het hier laatste het geval maar dat weet ik niet zeker.

Wat ik wel zeker weet is dat die folder vol staat met fouten en in Nederland al tot een tegenactie heeft geleid, namelijk stickers voor op je brievenbus die zeggen dat je geen creationisme in je bus wil:

neecreationisme-jadarwin . nl

[eequalsfb]

Happy 200th Chuck!
