    Pity there was no mention of the fundamentalist religious bodies who support the creationist theory. Talking of the ‘fundamentalist darwinists’ without this balancing factor causes me to regard the views expressed as unbalanced and dubious.

    Ian,

    Wouldn’t that have been irrelevant? Michael Cremo’s book ultimately describes corruption in science and academia, bodies whose impartiality is supposed to be secured by systems like peer review (although it doesn’t end up working out that way).

    Fundamentalism in religion is, to some extent, predictable and expected. But in the context of science and academia, fundamentalism is a much bigger issue because it goes against everything we assume they stand for.

    Religion can be fundamentalist and still be religion; science cannot be fundamentalist and remain science.
