Do apologize for a delay in the landing of your joke!

Sorry for disagreeing, but the quote "a pseudoproblem invented by nature-philosophers to give biology an air of profundity" yields no result referable to Medawar in a standard search engines (like Google), at all. Arvid Argen can give us a proper ref, I'm sure, he now must!, why not from the start?

He cannot really have addressed Michael Ruse with "you" in this snippet, for Ruse was no proponent of Gaia, I think.

I think it's one of these things: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlMB...

Yep.

The name is Rorschach, right?

Don't attribute it to yourself. It's them.

Enthüllt: Ein privates Treffen, das die Geschichte Europas veränderte. | Terra X History Doku Das legendäre Treffen Adenauers und de Gaulles im September 1958 hat eine komplizierte Vorgeschichte. Aus "Erbfeindschaft" wird Freundschaft.

So, "Ein Tag im Spetember" is a documentary about De Gaulle and Adenauer: www.zdf.de/play/dokus/a...

Sorry, but when I hear about De Gaulle & Adenauer or Mitterand & Kohl forming personal bonds and that being a boon to democracy and freedon, I immediatly think of Trump, Putin, Xi or Kim forming personal bonds. It's not the personal bonds but the ideas of the bodning people.

You have the gift of telling a captivating narrative, bolstered by facts, and that's an advantage in history of science.

Now, try rails and puffs.

AFAIK, the biggest idiot in the "history of biology" was Dr. Pangloss.

Do you agree that W.D. Hamilton used "selfish gene" differently from Dawkins? For Hamilton, a selfish gene was a chunk of DNA that coded for selfish behaviour of the organism (vehicle or interactor). For Dawkins it was "selfishness", even against the vehicle, if that promoted replication.

Whatever it is, the therapy is to deflate it.

Just saying, Falk saved twice as many penalties. #ec2025

4. Write an autobiography telling that you are all selfmade?

Is whatn't?

Congrats! I gather that the principle of divergence is a minor topic (from not being in the conclusion). Would your writing have suffered from citing some of the publications on that principle (e.g., Kohn, Tammone). Is your interpretation so new that discussing theirs would have led into arcania?

Looks like Nessie

Probably smooth. Just quickly checked my adaptationists (e.g. Maynard Smith) for claimed vilification, but only found a citation of Huxley in Williams. Wish Gould’s sentence would’ve been shorter but with references.

Huxley (1953) defined progress as "improvement wich permints further improvement" and said it is "difficult to prophesy the detailed course it will have", but, "once we can look back on the facts we reallize that it could have happened in no other way."

The gist of this long sentence: Deep homologies, like Hox genes, forced historical and structural constraints into evolutionary theory.
The panglossian to beat here is Julian Huxley (1953, Evolution in Action), I guess. Can't be GC Williams and Dawkins had written his chap. 3 in Extended Phenotype.

It has such a definite form for an amoeba, how come?

Sorry, but I have to reject your decision tree. I thinkt that science education should enable the learners to judge any scientific publication on its own merits. That requires an understanding and judgement of its actual content. Your decision tree doesn't require engagement with the actual content.

Das Schmierblättchen landete heute in meinem Briefkasten (Schwalbach am Taunus) uns somit wohl auch in der weiteren Nachbarschaft. Ist echt schlimm...

This skeet does not belong into the "HP Bio" feed. The emojis 🌱🐋 just so happen to occur next to each other in it. By chance, Greg Priest made them the signature emoji combination for the HP Bio feed.

Not at all.

If you miss the dash, the answer reads: "No evidence for evolution is overwhelming."

That will make evolutionists click as well as anti-evolutionists. I call that well-crafted.
