As usual, being Slashdot, the louder you are, the more insightful you are modded.

WTF does this mean? Which of Godel's incompleteness theorems tells me about deity's knowledge? Godel's theorems have quite precise mathematical content. Your psycho-babble is embarrassing and wrong. But since it's clearly not meant to be understood and you clearly don't know what you are talking about, I'll just point out one specific obvious error: not all formal systems are either incomplete or inconsistent -- they have to be complex enough to contain the natural numbers, an infinite set. I don't know how "souls" and "knowledge" and you grandma relate to Godel but I have a strong suspicion that they don't.

"One can ignore this evidence only at the risk of calling into question one's understanding of science and the scientific method."

Uhm... no. Either develop a repeatable test that results in macro-evolution, or stop pretending that the theory of evolution is the result of the scientific method. It wasn't. It was the result of an untested epiphany of some guy on an island (and that is an *empirical fact*, lets remember), and it absolutely boggles my mind that supposedly scientifically sophisticated individuals don't/won't/can't(?) understand that.

On the otherhand, I think the professor has the right to give recommendations out to whomever he chooses. I mean, if he thinks only women should go to grad school, wouldn't it be within the bounds of his personal freedom to recommend only women? I think it would.
