JE:-
One day the University of Oxford will have
to explain why Dawkins nonsense is allowed 
to be paraded in the name of evolutionary
_science_. What is particularly galling is
that Dawkins is supposed to be popularising
evolutionary _theory_ when all he is doing
is popularising evolutionary _mythology_,
i.e. popularising misused non refutable
simplified models of refutable evolutionary 
theory.
