I want to encourage critics of materialistic evolution to start thinking even now about organizing conferences and other public events in 2009 aimed at deflating Darwinism and its contemporary offshoots (it’s never too soon to start). Darwin’s Origin of Species was published in 1859, and its centennial celebration in 1959 at the University of Chicago was a love fest for Darwin. The man and his “dangerous idea” have been way oversold. Thus, it is high time to have some conferences at major research institutions that highlight the deficiencies of materialistic evolution — especially at the 150th anniversary of the Origin. MORE.
