"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

Just when I thought President's Trump's war against science and his war against the environment could not get any worse I found this at the Wall Street Journal.
"President Donald Trump is tapping a climate-change skeptic with ties to the fossil-fuel industry to serve as one of his top environmental advisers."
