Against Darwinism
Posted in Evo-Devo, Evolution, Evolutionary Psychology, Natural Selection, Shoddy Science on April 4th, 2009 by nullasalusI only just found out that Jerry Fodor recently debated Philip Kitcher on the merits of Darwinism, specifically the value of natural selection in an explanatory capacity. While Fodor is an avowed atheist and metaphysical naturalist, he nevertheless takes a very dim view of Darwinism (though not evolution or common descent), and I tend to find his views interesting for one reason only: His ability to really, really irritate a diverse array of people.
