Submission + - irish science minister endorses intelligent design (freethinker.co.uk)
dan_in_dublin writes: from the article "IN DUBLIN tomorrow a book rubbishing evolution will be launched ââoe by Irelandââs Minister of State for Science, Technology and Enterprise, Conor Lenihan!"
The irish science minister demonstrates his scientific acumen by endorsing an author whose website [http://www.theoriginofspeciousnonsense.com/index-2.html] and book propose arguments such as
"Our Milky Way/Universe is so mathematically precise and orderly that we can predict an eclipse of the moon 176 years in advance to the 16th of July 2186, that's 176 years in advance of today to the very second.. CHANCE? — NO."
"It is sacrificing reason on the alter of treason to accept that the greatest construction of all time.. a human being with a brain is the result of chance, randomness and destructive mutations. It is the irrational three legged chair of hopeless speculation that bears no resemblance whatsoever to reality and observable functioning perfect order."
grounds for resignation for a science minister ?
