His published books give new meaning to pulp fiction.


Undoubtedly a student of P T Barnum.

@spendius,
That's from the publishing site webpage and unless you qualify the search, his name does not come up on a Google search. Who do you think you're trying to fool. You are a fool.

1.0 out of 5 stars Incompetence at the National Academy of Sciences, March 17, 2009
I am astounded to read words of praise for this propagandistic screed, a book that fails to meet even the logical standards expected of a high school sophomore's term paper.
The authors from the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) admit in their book that they do not have a "plausible hypothesis" for the origin of life. They write on page 22, "Constructing a plausible hypothesis of life's origins will require that many questions be answered." And yet, on page 51 and elsewhere, they refer to evolution as a "fact."
Further, they produce no evidence for the alleged evolution of the sexes because they have none. Yet on page 39, they write of the "overwhelming evidence that evolution has taken place."
And further still, out of the two million or so species alive on this planet, the NAS cannot pick a single one (an anchovy, a polar bear, a bluebird, a pine tree, or anything else) and identify, with evidence, the species from which it allegedly evolved. And yet they write on page 14 of their book that the theory of evolution "is a foundational scientific truth, one that has stood up to rigorous scrutiny."
When the NAS writers cannot explain how and why things happen in nature, which is throughout the book, they call upon their do-all, be-all, and end-all cover-up for their ignorance, "natural selection." They define it in three contradictory ways - as the "driving force" of evolution, as a "process," and as an outcome ("reproductive success"). Natural "selection" is not a scientific principle at all, but rather NAS's overworked and ill-applied FIGURE OF SPEECH. The "driving force" behind evolution turns out to be nothing more than contrived rhetoric.
Without any actual evidence for evolution, the NAS writers are forced to rely upon philosophy and empty seduction. To the discerning reader, their deceptions and illogic are patently obvious. They include repetitive false affirmations, disguised tautologies, authoritative obfuscations, and slapping 'sciency' lipstick all over their no-evidence pig.
I have written in detail about this charade of charades and scam of scams in my book Sowing Atheism: The National Academy of Sciences' Sinister Scheme to Teach Our Children They're Descended from Reptiles. The writers of the NAS book, members of that organization's hierarchy, demonstrate for all to see, that they are not capable of presenting their case clearly, logically, or honestly. Given their position in our society, that is extremely frightening.

I admit it. When I was born I was a committed sucker. Right from the get-go. It was the only entertainment around at the time.

Saying that there's a sucker born every minute is as daft as saying the sky's up.

You're an idiot.

To begin with there is no degree in "General Science" at West Point. This guys has fabricated his previous books publishings -- his profile is a fake. You are a fake.

I supposed you meant "featured in this thread," but since you're the grammatical genius, I'm not sure.

@Ceili,
I'll have you know Ceili that I am one of the Academy Club 8.

It's the most exclusive literary club in this weary world of woe. I don't think any of us know who the other 7 are. I certainly don't. I would like to though.

Maybe one of them might read this. Some bloody hope.

Yup, with the exception of Computer Science, all degrees at the United States Military Academy are engineering degrees, which should surprise no one familiar with military academies.

The USMA offers degrees in Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Engineering Management, Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Systems Engineering, in addition to the Computer Sciences degree. Look for the side bar on the West Point Academics page, which is entitled USMA Accreditations.

Must be exclusive if even Google can't find it. Give yourself a pat on the back, nobody else will.

Can't you get anything right Wiz? You keep asking us to take your word on things and your record today is such that a sensible person would think it best to believe the opposite.

Look Ceili--all I did is what I usually do. I highlighted the guys name in blue, right clicked which gives options one of which is "search Google". Then I clicked on that and it all came up. Amazon Books had him on the page top.
