John M. Lynch is an Honors Faculty Fellow at Barrett the Honors College at Arizona State University. He's also affiliated with ASU's Center for Biology & Society. When he's not an historian of anti-evolutionism, he's an evolutionary morphologist. Much to his surprise, in 2007 he was named the Arizona Professor of the Year. No doubt his students were surprised as well.

Darwin Day Lecture in Oklahoma

Category: History and Philosophy (often of Science)

You probably already know that today is the bicentennial of Darwin’s birthday. What you may not know is that I’m giving a talk tonight (7pm) at the Sam Noble Oklahoma Natural History Museum on “Was there a Darwinian Revolution?” It is the open address for the University of Oklahoma’s “Darwin 2009” celebrations. 

If you’re in the area, do drop along. Later on in the week, I may get around to posting slides.

And the lecture was REALLY good! Full house (ca 350 persons). Unexpectedly, there were no questions/comments from creationists. Thanks John for your efforts this week at Oklahoma.

Why the hate directed towards the religious? (No really, why?)

Science owes a great debt to Christianity. Faraday, Maxwell, Pascal, Mendel, are but a few of the devout Christians responsible for founding most of the branches of what is considered to be modern science.

Am I missing something?

@DaveW

Where is the "hate directed towards the religious"? I don't see any in this post or the single comment before yours. Aren't you projecting just a little? And making assumptions about what I say/believe?
