The Foundation of Sand - Vox Popoli - (Darwinism is DEAD! - CL)

 Both Darwinism and Neo-Darwinian theory are dead, even if the scientists are still reluctant to openly admit it. But it’s a death that has been in the making for at least the last 30 years:


It was obvious from the time of the 1967 symposium held by the Wistar Institute that evolution was not a real science. Evolution has been effectively dead since Mendel, it’s just that we didn’t have the genetic science to comprehensively diprove it until quite recently.

Shattering the Myths of Darwinism (1992)
Richard Milton's Shattering the Myths of Darwinism arrived in 1992 like a stone through the stained glass window of scientific orthodoxy. Here was a science journalist, not a creationist or religious fundamentalist, methodically documenting how the central theory of modern biology had become less a scientific framework than a kind of secular religion, complete with its own dogmas, heresies, and inquisitions. Milton discovered what anyone who dares to look closely at Darwin's theory finds: that "survival of the fittest" is actually a meaningless tautology—those who survive are defined as fit because they survived—and that the entire edifice of evolutionary theory rests not on empirical evidence but on a series of circular arguments, unexamined assumptions, and what W.R. Thompson called "fragile towers of hypothesis on hypothesis." The book wasn't just another critique of evolution; it was an exposé of how science itself had been corrupted, transformed from a method of inquiry into an instrument of ideological enforcement.
