And, for that matter, what it is about evolutionary biology that logically opposes revolutionary biology? A dialectician would see these as two sides of the same process, no?

Charles: Yes, I tried to indicate this. "Revolution" implies evolution turning into revolution, so revolutionary biology includes evolutionary biology and more. Revolutionary biology is Darwinism-plus.

And I'm even more with Sam - skepticism is a healthy prerequisite. Taken to the point of all denial of human capacity to understand itself and the cosmos that spawned it, it is a highly infectious disease.

Charles: Yes, what we need is critical thinking, a sublation of skepticism.
