| Quote (evopeach @ Oct. 13 2005,09) | | I never said 400 scientists don't believe in evolution. Rather there are 400 who publically state they do not accept neo-Darwinian theory of muation and selection as an acceptable explanation of the life we observe. |
How many of those scientists are biologists, and what do they believe to be an acceptable explanation?

But the Conclusion from Popularity is one that ID supporters like to use, given the 50%-66% support that ID gets in polls.
All while dismissing the near universal consensus on evolution by scientists, incidentally....

Fundamentalism in a nutshell:
"There are a lot of things I have concluded to be wrong, without studying them in-depth. Evolution is one of them. The fact that I don't know that much about it does not bother me in the least."
