Scientists who doubt Darwinism

I recently had a reporter express her considered opinion that there were "no scientists" who didn't accept Darwinism. I wish had had this list at my fingertips at the time. It is a statement signed by 600 scientists saying, "“We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged.”

  1. Leading off with Phil Skell? Well, then let's modify the charge for accuracy: No non-crackpot scientists who favor ID, in addition to none doing research in the field.

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:

1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.

The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.

Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
