"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

My favorite biologist is in India these days. At "Ways of knowing: Science versus everything else", he agrees this is bullshit: "Big questions about the Universe that science cannot answer but religion can." Religion can't answer any question. Religion is bullshit. Religion is brain damage.
