Shouldn’t they want more testing? As a progressive and Radical Jew, I want as much peer-reviewed testing as possible to prove once and for all that evolution didn’t lead to any variance in brain development and cognitive ability between races\/breeds\/tribes of humans. Why don’t they trust in the limitations of the last few millions of years of evolution the way I do?<\/p>\n

Goy Philosopher says: “Just noticed your brief post on Janet Kourany’s disgusting anti-scientific views. Sadly, people like this are now pretty much in charge of academic philosophy. In other words, academic philosophy is not a kind of philosophy anymore. It’s interesting that she is saying some “knowledge” should be forbidden. Knowledge has to be true. You can’t know that 2 + 3 = 4. So she seems to be tacitly or unconsciously conceding that much of the research she wants to shut down is actually true. But she thinks it doesn’t matter whether it’s true, I guess.”<\/p>\n
