A. N. Wison is a curious character. Back in the 1970's, he first made his name as one of the Young Fogeys. For a long time, he was known as a religious man, and indeed, at one point, he began studies to prepare to become an Anglican priest, but he dropped out. By the early 1990's, when atheism started to become fashionable in the UK, he announced himself as being an atheist, and wrote a number of books, article, and pamphlets on behalf of atheism. More recently, he has announced his re-conversion back to Christianity.

These attempts to shade our understanding in the interrelated fields of science and political economy go along with the increasing dominance of the reactionary undergrowth in what is taken to be normal politics. Although I am sure that Wilson expresses himself much more eloquently than Trump. http://www.newstatesman.com/culture/books/2017/08/wilson-makes-unconvincing-attempt-kick-darwin-his-throne _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/farmelantj%40juno.com ____________________________________________________________ How To "Remove" Dark Spots Gundry MD http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/59b12f997b6d2f9846c9st02vuc _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
