Knowing that ENV's readers include many teachers and other educators, I thought I would offer a brief teaching idea, especially for those who have their students submit papers to SafeAssign or some similar plagiarism-detection software. Read More ›

Alleged stays true to the complicated story rather than, in the manner of Inherit the Wind, turning it into a Darwinian propagandist morality cartoon. Read More ›

Why the “Onion Test” Fails as an Argument for “Junk DNA”

Jonathan McLatchie
November 2, 2011
Evolution
1
The so-called onion test, or indeed the "C-value enigma," is predicated on unsupportable assumptions about the physiological effects of -- and/or requirements for -- larger genomes, many of which are contradicted by the scientific evidence. Read More ›

Can Darwinists Condemn Hitler and Remain Consistent with Their Darwinism?

Richard Weikart

Applying Darwinian insights to morality is not distorting the theory at all (as it would be for someone to draw moral implications from relativity theory). Rather, it is explicitly part and parcel of Darwin's own theory of human evolution. Read More ›

Picture an Ouroboros, the alchemical symbol of a snake with its own tail in its mouth. Do you get the feeling that Darwinian "logic" is taking us nowhere? Read More ›

Fact-Checking Wikipedia on Common Descent: The Evidence from Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry

Jonathan McLatchie
October 7, 2011
Biochemistry, Evolution, Genetics
