Dr. Stephen C. Meyer: Climategate Recalls Attacks on Darwin Doubters
Dr. Stephen C. Meyer, author of Signature in the Cell, writes at Human Events:
Believers in human-caused global climate change have been placed under an uncomfortable spotlight recently.
That is thanks to the Climategate scandal, centering on e-mails hacked from the influential Climate Research Unit (CRU) at England’s University of East Anglia.
The e-mails show scientists from various academic institutions hard at work suppressing dissent from other scientists who have doubts on global warming, massaging research data to fit preconceived ideas, and seeking to manipulate the gold standard “peer review” process to keep skeptical views from being heard.
Does this sound familiar at all?To me, as a prominent skeptic of modern Darwinian theory, it sure does.
For years, Darwin-doubting scientists have complained of precisely such abuses, committed by Darwin zealots in academia.
