Creationist Smear Fails

You wouldn't expect a liberal and progressive site like the Huffington Post to publish something as odious as this piece by David Klinghoffer, a Creationist. It is an extraordinarily nasty smear on science, and blames the Nazis and other 20th century evils on Darwinism and evolutionary thinking (just as well all that anti-Semitism of the Nazis wasn't inspired by religion, eh?).

Happily the Huffington Post gave science the right of reply. Well worth a read if you want to enjoy someone's foolishness, deceit and outright lies being exposed for what they are.

I welcome comments, but I ask commenters to follow a few simple rules:

1. I delete anonymous comments. Please use either a name or moniker. I am not asking anyone to reveal their secret identity. Just don't call yourself "Anonymous".
2. I am thick-skinned, thanks to years of serving my reptilian overlords, but I won't tolerate abusive comments. Feel free to criticise the substance of what I have written, provided your criticism is intelligent and constructive. Don't abuse me or other commenters.
3. Please don't defame people.
