The thrust I got from Taylor's book is not that there should be no revision of theory, but rather that Darwin and his followers start out with a crap theory with the (unstated) mandate to stick to their pre-conceived idea no matter what. Only to revise the crap theory with other crap ideas after the first crap idea proves false. And so the cycle continues indefinitely; rather than Darwin and his followers ever being able to even possibly come to the logical conclusion that their whole theory is outright false and hence should be scrapped altogether.Originally Posted by Banquo's Ghost
Definitely agree with you that Darwin was a heretic.
Oh yeah, Taylor also debunks the fruit flies thing on the same page of the previous link, just a little further down.
