A Scientific dissent from Darwin

dissent from Darwin
Over 1,000 doctoral scientists from around the world have signed a statement publicly expressing their skepticism about the contemporary theory of Darwinian evolution. The statement, located online at dissentfromdarwin.org, reads: “We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged.”
“Because no scientist can show how Darwin’s mechanism can produce the complexity of life, every scientist should be skeptical,” said biologist Douglas Axe, director of Biologic Institute. “The fact that most won’t admit to this exposes the unhealthy effect of peer pressure on scientific discourse.”

Yet public TV programs, educational policy statements, and science textbooks have asserted that Darwin’s theory of evolution fully explains the complexity of living things. The public has been assured that all known evidence supports Darwinism and that virtually every scientist in the world believes the theory to be true.

Nearly everyone who gets swept up in these debates fears whatever the truth is.

Lots of evolutionists are surprisingly agreeable to intelligent design, as long as the intelligence isn’t God.

Good to read about.
Healthy skepticism and debate - can't be afraid of that

In a way, intelligent design reaffirms Darwin's "survival of the fittest". If an individual is designed stupidly, it's not going to last very long on our planet.

Darwin himself went to the grave a bit fearful of what his theories actually entailed.

Missing branches.

When has random mutation and natural selection been insufficient in a smaller example? They can say it’s insufficient, but why?

Here's where all the theists start grasping at straws

So what you are saying is, that one the most widely unquestioned scientific theories gets debated more honestly than climate change within scientific circles?

I have no problem with people questioning scientific assumptions, but ID is not anywhere close to a good replacement for evolution and natural selection.

Darwin's theory was wholly based on empirical observation and thus lacking important details. He of course had no knowledge of nucleic acids or genes and genomes, or RNA transcription to proteins. etc. Now we have full understanding of these things, and yet macroevolution is still perplexing. No one has ever seen one creature evolve into something else, nor will they.

These threads are always good for a laugh. The retards come out the woodwork.

Wrong.
