Romansh: https://whyevolutionistrue.wordpress.com/2013/08/25/famous-physiologist-embarrasses-him... you read Shapiro's book? Have you watched Noble's video? I think you are unwilling to review new material and opinion. Coyne wasn't included in the Altenburg 16, was he?

Have you read Shapiro's book? No > Have you watched Noble's video? Yes a couple of times on other fora. And so what? > I think you are unwilling to review new material and opinion. Comments like this make your thoughts increasingly immaterial David.-> Coyne wasn't included in the Altenburg 16, was he?-And should he be? >> The Altenberg 16 controversy was spurred by a science meeting at the Konrad Lorenz Institute in 2008 which proposed an extended evolutionary synthesis that was misrepresented by creationists and similar types to attack evolutionary biology. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Altenberg_16_controversy

There is an alternate view to your thinking. Are you afraid to review it?

No creationists were present. -Apparently that does not stop creationists from misrepresenting the meeting?-ps Jerry Coyne on Altenberg 16 https://whyevolutionistrue.wordpress.com/2009/02/16/are-we-ready-for-an-extended-evolutionary-synthesis/

> Romansh: But you did not answer Jerry's criticisms of Noble's position.-Why bother. Minds smarter than mine conducted the Altenberg 16 because they see the huge gaps in Neo-Darwinism.
