I think that the liberal media need to stand back for a moment, take deep breath and think about what they are saying.

There have been more than 140 reprints of The Origin of Species, with most of them having Introductions or Forewords. Some were even critical of the theory of evolution. Prof. W. R. Thompson, F.R.S., in his Introduction to Origin of Species in 1956 said that it was "right and proper to draw the attention of the non-scientific public to the disagreements about evolution."

He added, "But some recent remarks of evolutionists show that they think this unreasonable. This situation, where scientific men rally to the defense of a doctrine they are unable to define scientifically, much less demonstrate with scientific rigor, attempting to maintain its credit with the public by the suppression of criticism and the elimination of difficulties, is abnormal and unwise in science."

I haven’t attacked Darwin, but simply looked objectively at his belief and asked if it’s scientific, and then left it up to the reader to make up his own mind. If I am the buffoon I'm said to be, this Introduction will confirm it in the eyes of 100,000 young people. If not, then you have a right to be concerned.

In his own 1859 Introduction, Charles Darwin said, "A fair result can be obtained only by fully stating and balancing the facts and arguments on both sides of each question."
