That’s the attitude – it’s time scientists speak up:
Evolution is a scientific fact, and every organization whose research depends on it should explain why.

Unfortunately most people are incapable of understanding science. And they think that science is nothing more than a belief system and so fall back on their own belief system which they can understand – religion.
I have to say that I to a great degree feel personally in tune with your description:
“Expect libertarian, futurist, and transhumanist opinions here.
Thinking is the art of expanding boundaries – this is only achieved by venturing into territory not charted by commonly held views. If transcending the mental constructs your society has put in place to guard you against the vastness of the cosmos – this site may not be for you.”
Please be kind enough to allow me to offer a heartfelt suggestion. Inasmuch as I have been, for many years, an individual and personal student of metaphysics, I felt compelled to respond. Please accept my very fervent suggestion that you obtain and read the book “Thinking and Destiny” by Harold Waldwin Percival. If it is hard to find, contacting the publisher The Word Foundation by e-mail would allow you to order the book (as well as getting a bit of a taste regarding its content and approach. Despite the Foundation’s name, this is not a “biblical” or “religious” work. Nevertheless I feel that it is the most cogent presentation regarding the significance of the information concerning all religion, and “higher thought”… that exists…period!!!
As well, may I say that it is my personal opinion that there is NO MORE IMPORTANT BOOK on the face of this earth that deals with the subject of man and woman and the origins of humanity. I feel very strongly that this is a work you MUST read.
Thank you so much for your attention to this suggestion.
My Very Best,
Mike Sheller
