Talk:Nils Heribert-Nilsson

Return to "Nils Heribert-Nilsson" page.

Member of the Royal Swedish academy of sciences?

I am looking into the claim that Nils Heribert-Nilsson in 1943 was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. conservative

There is no doubt about that! But were you able to locate the Swedish Institute of Biology - the second Heribert Nilsson Day is coming up! RonLar 11:37, 26 July 2011 (EDT)
It appears as if one or more websites mistranslated the name of an institution and called it the "Swedish Institute of Biology". However, he may have served in some capacity at the "Swedish Botanical Institute" (See Google results for "Swedish Botanical Institute " Nilsson). I think a Swedish person who took the time to research this matter could better address this issue. Conservative (talk) 00:44, 17 December 2016 (EST)
RonLar, a website which is an advocate of evolutionism indicates: "It seems to be safe to say, at least, that Mr. Nilsson was not director of "The Swedish Botanical Institute", but a "Swedish institute" - namely the Department of Botany (Swedish: Botaniska Institutionen) at the University of Lund, which is, indeed, in Sweden."
To me, this appears to be a satisfactory answer. You know what they say, "a broken watch is right twice a day". Once in a while, even fanatical evolutionists can be right.
Anyways, it is a moot point since the article does not mention "The Swedish Botanical Institute".
In addition, with British atheism hitting a brick wall when it comes to the further secularization of Britain (the secularization rate of Britain recently hit zero. See: European desecularization in the 21st century) and with both Evangelical Christianity and Islam growing in Britain along with other desecularization forces, it is just a matter of time before evolutionism falls. If evolutionism won't be able to stand in the 21st century even in its birthplace as far as it current popularity in some countries, how will it ever stand in the rest of the world?

Britain's Financial Times published an article in 2018 with the title/subtitle of: "The return of religion. Among atheists as well as believers, strident secularism is giving way to a renewed sense of faith’s hold."

British academic and religious/political demography expert Eric Kaufmann declared that the future of the Western World and the world at large belongs to religious conservatives due to religious conservative immigration to the West and the higher birth rates of religious conservatives (and the sub-replacement level of births of the irreligious).[1][2] See also: DesecularizationWikignome72 (talk) 14:38, 19 September 2019 (EDT)

And remember, Johns Hopkins University Press reported in 2014: "Over the past forty years, creationism has spread swiftly among European Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Hindus, and Muslims, even as anti-creationists sought to smother its flames."[3]Wikignome72 (talk) 14:42, 19 September 2019 (EDT)
