Meyer's Hopeless Monster
Submitted by admin on Wed, 2006-08-30 06:33. Dissecting the Rhetoric | Icons | Irreducible Complexity | Meyer, Stephen C. | Specified ComplexityAlan Gishlick, Nick Matzke, and Wesley R. Elsberry critique the paper published by "intelligent design" advocate Stephen C. Meyer in Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington in August, 2004. They conclude that Meyer's review paper presents an incomplete, misleading, and false impression of the biological evidence, and that his conclusion that "intelligent design" is supported because evolutionary alternatives are eliminated is illegitimate.
