Ed Sisson May 2006: part 4 of 6

Lawyer Edward Sisson, who represented Dr. Caroline Crocker (featured in Ben Stein's "Expelled"), discusses Dr. Crocker's case, academic freedom, the 2005 Kansas "evolution hearings," & the evolution and intelligent design controversy, placing it in the history of controversies beginning with Anne Hutchinson's being expelled by Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1638 for heresy. Recorded in May 2006, edited into 37-minute film in May 2008 and posted complete to http://gallery.mac.com/sissoed#100000. Uploaded to youtube in 6 parts.

Alternate2GOP,

These items are still in your queue. please either answer them or own up to them.

1. Admit abiogenesis and TOE are distinct and you were wrong in stating THEY WERE "PRETTY MUCH" THE SAME and that you have no evidence to back up your claims.

2. Provide evidence AGAINST The theory of evolution or admit there isn't any.

I'll ask this again until you provide answers are admit you are in error. I've got all year, hope you do too...

If evolution tenets were applied to the rigor of physics or engineering (e.g. radical change occurring over time at a core/essence level) then physics and engineering would be 'lawless'.

The concepts of Darwinism are so flawed, they fail basic premises. Models that cannot be applied across sciences are not sound. Models that cannot accommodate the basic premises of multiple fields of science are not sound.

Darwin would be embarrassed for those who cannot see the flaws his 'dated' theories.

Count me in.

"Always tough to make scientific info accessible to the lay public."

It's great that we now have the Internet. For those inclined, they can delve deeply into current science, at any level. Except for the 'hands on', you could almost get your Biology PhD online.

I predict the next generation of scientists to be more open to ID. Embarassing to proffs, they'll get the occsasional undergrad that may know more regarding the current research than they.

Hey, it's happening to physicians now ...

Always tough to make scientific information accessible to the lay public. Nice job of explaining the science as well as the underlying materialistic assumptions.
