And surprisingly the real kooks aren't on the list.
I guess that list is just those with power, influence, and money. It has nothing to do with their ideas. |

This loon?
| Quote | Fred Hutchinson: An associate of Alan Keyes (writing on his website) Hutchison is the kind of guy who insists that he masters all sorts of sciences, but whose positions roughly correlates with that of the European church in the 15th century. A sample:
- He rejects Einstein, because the theory of relativity offers “no explanation of why an apple falling from a tree moves straight down” (as opposed to Newton). Of course Hutchison knows nothing about physics – he has managed to misunderstand some popular scientific presentation of Einstein.
- He rejects global warming because we have no “explanation of how CO2 differs from nitrogen and oxygen in its influence on the greenhouse effect”. He denies that gases can affect atmospheric temperature.
- He rejects the theory of evolution because, well, he doesn’t have any clue whatsoever how it is supposed to work. |
The loon is strong in this one indeed, Sir!
