He just cannot get off touting his religion as the only true religion, repeating his mantra again in "The Trials of Life" [Anti Gravity]. Thank you for reprimanding Mirsky about proselytizing his personal religion, instead of reporting on science.
Steve Mirsky wrote:Langenbach's faith in his conclusion that I have been reprimanded is unfounded. He causes one to ponder, however, the benefits of decreeing evolution to be a religion-biologists could top the vast amount of research funding suddenly available through the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives and academic departments would receive tax-exempt status. Alas, evolution remains science.
"If one needed proof that a guitar was more than wood and string, that a song was more than notes and words, and that a man could be more than a name and a few faded pictures, then Robert Johnson’s recordings were all one could ask for."
I'd like to see where Mirsky was "reprimanded", that's all. His response is oh so appropriate, though.
"If one needed proof that a guitar was more than wood and string, that a song was more than notes and words, and that a man could be more than a name and a few faded pictures, then Robert Johnson’s recordings were all one could ask for."
A lot of scientists believe that back through time, something, molecules, amoeba, whatever, evolved into the complexities of life we have now.
