In the thread Evidence for Intelligent Design-is there any? Beretta wrote in his opening post:
-the continually rehashed icons of evolution that despite being a collection of old worn, some fraudulent, others thoroughly discredited, most out of date somehow never seem to change. One would think with all the vast network of science, something more convincing would come along, but no.
I wrote further down the thread I would be interested in discussing this topic in a different thread, since it would be off-topic in that one. Beretta agreed, and so this is my opening post.
I'm am currently 26 years old, so not too long ago, I went to highschool, where I of course got taught Bioligy among others. I never heard of these so called Icons of evolution before, in fact the first time I heard of them was when I watched a creationist video. Never before that had I heard of Piltdown man, Nebraska man, Archeoraptor, or any of the others mentioned. So, it seems these "icons" aren't being constantly rehashed. Or was my school just so much better?
I don't think discussing all of the icons at the same time is going to give a good topic, so I would suggest picking one or two and then discuss them here, we could always get more in later. So Beretta, or anyone else, if youre up for it, please pick one or two of these "icons" and let's discuss them.
