One criticism you certainly cannot make of paleontologist and ID critic Donald Prothero is that he doesn’t give us enough material to work with. As Stephen Meyer observes in this conversation about the critics of Darwin’s Doubt, Prothero threw pretty much “everything but the kitchen sink” at Meyer’s book, from the enigmatic Ediacaran fauna to the artifact hypothesis, and more.
Meyer answers Prothero’s rant, among others’, in the new Epilogue to Darwin’s Doubt, and dispatches him even more speedily here.
