Daniel Dennett's De-Darwinizing Deluge
A detailed critical summary of From Bacteria to Bach and Back, by Daniel Dennett. The most absurd combination of sounds received by a printing press since Xul Solar invented the Panlingua astrological alphabet.
It seems
that -mistakenly in the proto-scientific “thinkers” eyes- a wheelbarrow
carries the powerful (to laypeople) message that it necessitates just
one wheel, to bring not only the sand, or the stone, or the gravel, or
the brick, or the coal, or the flint, or the concrete, etc, but also the
designer’s (copyrighted artistic “idea”/expression) beautifully crafted
handles, and rubber, and spokes, and grips, and metal, and inner tube,
and so forth, in what I call in my conferences Gould’s punctuated
SYNDROME (isn’t it it?), that does not explain the inherent
mind-word-token meme (wouldn’t it?) of a partially intelligent and
not-so-empowered designer. OK. Please, repeat with me, “down with the
wheelbarrow” five times! Et al. So be it. Thanks.
