Fighting for science and reason in a faith-based world

About Me
- ScienceAvenger
- I have a mathematics background, an interest in science, and an unapologetic impatience for sloppy thinking. This puts me at odds with both right and left. It's high time the rational scientific viewpoint got the rabid proponent it deserves. I fight nonsense so the scientists don't have to. The blog is not necessarily about science, but rather is a scientific view of the world. Rational, civilly expressed, factually supported thought-out opposing views are welcome. Disparaging, irrational, intentionally obtuse, troll-like whack-a-mole, quote-mining posts will be dispatched without hesitation or apology, as will tit-for-tat partisan "the other side does it too" political gamesmanship, and opinions of what topics I should be writing about. We don't do that here.

It's cute, but it was stated without any thought, for it ignores a key phrase that is implicit. The phrase is: "70 million years of the Cambrian Explosion is “sudden” as far as blind unguided processes is concerned."
These posts keep getting better and better keep sharing..!
"Blind unguided processes" is a Creationist buzzphrase, a way of sneaking in the assumption that any process unguided by an intelligence is unguided per se. It's completely unjustified. Mutation is a blind, unguided process. Natural selection guides just fine, as has been demonstrated in the biological labs, as well as computer simulations in AI, and even engineering problems using evolutionary algorithms.
