Not content with declaring all living scientists on their side, Darwinists are now turning to the past and declaring that all dead scientists were really on their side too, if they'd only known it. Thus, a writer for The New Republic, James Kirchick, states that, were Isaac Newton among us today, it's quite likely he |
