Entry 1276

A little bit about evolution. "There is scientific dissent to Darwinism.".

Also, The Science of Dissent (I like the pun "In a six-page "Position Paper on the Teaching of Evolution," LeVake pledges to teach evolution while also taking "an honest look at the difficulties and inconsistencies of the theory." He lists examples of irreducible complexity in nature for which, he says, Darwin has no explanation, such as the eggshell and the woodpecker's tongue. LeVake cites "the amazing lack of transitional forms in the fossil record. There has never been a creature discovered that could be considered a logical intermediate of any two major classes of animals or plants."

There are a lot of broken links on this page, but the info is still interesting. How could the woodpecker's tongue have evolved gradually?
