The irrational Islamists are at it again.
This time they're attacking evolution, no longer a theory but an established fact in the whole of the enlightened world, but not to Muslims apparently. A tin-pot organisation known as Harun Yahya which claims there was no Stone Age, that god taught parrots to talk and that Darwinism - evolution to the rest of us - is at the root of all terrorism and must be eliminated, recently organised a meeting called The Collapse of Evolution Theory which was going to be held in, of all places, a hall bearing Charles Darwin's name, built in the grounds of his former home, which was arranged by University College London's Islamic Society as part of Islamic Awareness Week. After howls of protest from people who thought it inappropriate to have idiots denying evolution in such a building, it was moved elsewhere. Why a seat of learning such as University College London should have an Islamic Society isn't clear. Considering that all Islamist terrorists come from the most ignorant, least educated parts of the world who haven't heard of Darwin or evolution, to blame terrorism on Darwin is extraordinary, but those who are aware of how deranged many of these people are will see nothing odd in it. Logic doesn't come easily to Islamist fantasists. Rather than be accused of banning this rabble of thirteenth-century thinkers, the University authorities were perfectly prepared for such a display of illogicality and pig-headed refusal to learn anything that isn't contained in the Qu'ran to go ahead in another building; that's the trouble with liberals, they are just too damn liberal at times. I hope many people are planning to attend this meeting to pose difficult questions for the speakers whose grasp of science is rudimentary. Questions such as where do you suppose fossils came from? Or, do you understand carbon dating? All religion stems from ignorance combined with an overriding sense of the importance of homo sapiens and the elevation of one species above all others. This is handy intellectual dishonesty, it enables humans to behave as they wish towards all other species [because we're worth it], and has led to the environmental trashing of the planet. I therefore look on all religions as anti-life, anti-responsibility and anti-logic. Yet the actual reality of evolution from simple to complex organisms is so breathtakingly amazing in its infinite variation, in the sheer beauty of animals perfectly adapted to their environmental niche. For me, the strongest argument against so-called 'intelligent design' is the external testicles of mammals. What designer worthy of the name would have placed them outside the body where they are subject to being kicked, punched, struck by flying objects, kneed by small children or otherwise painfully injured? Now how intelligent is that? Further investigation of this shadowy organisation reveals that Adnan Oktar (pen name: Harun Yahya) is claimed on his web page to be a 'world renown and respected scholar' who has devoted himself to writing about scientific and faith-related subjects such as the theory of evolution and miracles of God. He is further described by supporters as a respected 'scientist' who has publications in incredibly diverse areas of interest (actually he is not even a university graduate). The fact is that, his publications and his foundation (Science Research Foundation) have recently been banned in Turkey, and most members of his "sect" have been sent to court. This was not due to their Islamic and scientific activities, but due to crimes such as blackmail, extortion, possession of unlicensed weapons and sexual intercourse with minors. He is opposed by many Muslims, who are striving to bring Islam into the 21st century from where it has resided for far too long, and there are plenty of Muslim sites criticising him and his cult followers. University College London has no business inviting people like this to give talks, it spreads the poison, and if only one young person is fooled, that could be one more suicide bomber a few years down the line. Harun Yahya International is based in the US in New York, the 'spiritual' home of creationism. I think the US authorities should investigate it, if they are serious about counteracting terrorism. One of this pompous idiot's claims [or prophesies] is that we are heading for a war between the West [Satan] and Islam [The Mahdi] and that Islam will triumph and establish Shariah in every country. That sounds like incitement to me.
