He only needs to watch that Attenborough piece where the different species of monkeys travel through the forest together since many eyes are good for seeing predators. The remarkable thing is that they not only know their own alarm calls for 'leopard' or 'eagle' or 'snake' they know the calls of all the other species too. We humans didn't invent being polyglot, it isn't even a great ape feature. The monkeys got there first.<br /><br />Yet another religious apologist who uses his own ignorance as an argument for god. Tawdry god of the gaps stuff. He has gone way down in my estimation.Peter in Dundeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36994129.post-43305536650159628572009-05-03T21:44:00.000+12:002009-05-03T21:44:00.000+12:00Thanks for the link Paul.

I liked his God's Funeral, a history of the loss of belief from the end of the 18thC forward showing that the Origin didn't kick it off, but simply did the coup de grace to the last best argument of the religious. Maybe he should reread his own books?Peter in Dundeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36994129.post-32138184553074986152009-05-03T13:08:00.000+12:002009-05-03T13:08:00.000+12:00Well, A N Wilson certainly proves why humans have ...Well, A N Wilson certainly proves why humans have created such an interestingly nasty range of gods over the millennia,,,some even with capital letters!
