Well, I understand that is your view. And it may even be right. But is it right to the point of finality? It cannot be challenged? I thought, philosophically, "science" does not permit such finality. Therefore, I stand by my assertion that as for the Left's view of "science," there are limits to inquiry. As far as I can tell, "don't ask, don't tell" is the Left's view of certain aspects of Darwinian evolution when it comes to human beings. David Shemano
