Ann Coulter's latest essay against evolution

It didn't even seem like a serious piece. She seemed to be saying "Hey guys, remember me? Ignore my support of gay republicans and just focus on my anti-liberalsim. By the way, I wrote a book 4 years ago too."
 
Ann Coulter's writing is counter-productive to the acquisition of new empirical knowledge.

The folks who find her material most appealing are the ones who don't bare the responsability of solving real problems in the fields of biology.

But, in spite of what this article implies, I think there is a shift occuring in the minds of Americans. I think more of us are, generally, accepting more of the the Theory of Evolution, over time. There will always be hold-outs. But, there is also hope in progress.

i hope you are correct.
however, there is an astounding and shocking percentage of americans who don't believe in evolution. i've heard between 60 and 75%.
is this really true?

Tea Baggers are not the majority in America.

You're doing the same racist shortcuts as Islamophobes do: Taliban=Muslims as a whole.

But I guess intolerance and bigotry is OK when Americans are the target.

there are fewer people in all of canada, than there are american evolution deniers.

How many people believe in evolution in Alberta?

Somehow, perhaps by polarization, the U.S. is among the most educated (in a specific sense) of all countries. I guess all the deniers of evolution must be in that un-educated group.
 
BTW, "devolving" makes no sense, so that shows how little you understand yourself of evolution.

Perfectly acceptable word. It's in the dictionary. The relevant meaning is to degenerate. It has nothing to do with evolutionary biology, just a fun play on words.

But in a thread about evolution BD meant it as the reverse of evolution, which doesn't make sense.

That depends on if you define uneducated as a failure to learn or a lack of sufficient years in school. ;)
 
Ann Coulter would lift up her skirt and show her private parts in live tv to get attention, except she's too intelligent so she realizes that this would only work once. Don't feed the troll.
