Evolution comments by a physist?
What does the beliefs of a person who studied physics and atomic structure have to do with biology? These are about as distinct disciplines as computer science and law... and I know that my background in CS doesn't give me any insight into the goings on of the courts. Maybe if he was a biologist it would be noteworthy, but what authority does he have to state opinion that should be respected on biology? --Mtur 19:32, 3 April 2007 (EDT)
- Well, if that's your approach, then what authority did Darwin have to comment on evolution either???
- Comments by anthropologists are self-serving. We also want to know what bright people have to say from their independent vantage points.
