New Evolution Book

Some time ago I wrote about a crazy book called, The Wild World of the Future which showed pictures of what evolutionary scientists imagine the future will be like in millions of years time. It was a publication about their wild speculations of what animals will evolve into--the snail in 100 million years will be bigger than an elephant, etc. Immediately I was accused of being deceitful, because this was merely a book that was written for children.

Well, we found the adult version, with adult pictures, in adult words. This one is for the big people. Without an ounce of scientific evidence, they played the imagination game with the future in the same way they have played it with the past. What an intellectual embarrassment--that the crazy theory of evolution could be masqueraded as being “scientific,” and what's even crazier is that gullible people have actually swallowed it, hook, line and sinker.

I noticed that the dummies folks have finally put out a book on evolution for dummies. I think they nailed it.
