[QUOTE="Harte, post: 15949, member: 443"] [b]Re: The Creation of Man[/b] Hoyle may not have been driven by religion, but there is no doubt he was driven by scientific dogma. That is not necessarily a bad thing though. It was Hoyle that created a new idea in cosmology. I think it was called spontaneous creation or something. It helped him hold on to the idea of a steady state universe until the end of his days. He could not accept the expansion of the universe. But he was in good company I guess. I mean Einstein was tied down by scientific dogma also (cosmological constant, "God does not play dice", etc.) If I were to by into the intelligent design theory, it wouldn't be because of Fred Hoyle's opinion on evolution. The man was an astrophysicist. In my opinion he was not very open minded in his own field. Not exactly the man to open my mind in an area not of his expertise. I don't know all the engines driving evolution anymore than anyone else does. I realize that there is not much actual evidence for evolution beyond the species to species change. The problem is there is no physical evidence [b]whatsoever[/b] for any other theory. I feel like I have to stick with what the evidence points to instead of what the lack of evidence may imply. After all, lack of evidence for evolution could mean we all were transported here by Scotty. Or maybe that all other animals descended from humans, or any of an infinite number of possibilities. Many of these might be fun to think about but the point is lack of evidence in itself has no meaning at all. Steven J. Gould is a good source for info on some more recent thinking about the drivers of evolution. [/QUOTE]
