So I guess you?ve abandoned Teilhard for Sheldrake now. Who next? Deepak
Chopra?

 
What part of "I don't have an opinion either way on Sheldrakes' ideas
and I'm certainly not seeking to defend them" did you not understand?
 
Or have you decided to replace some of our departed brethren and take
on their approach of arguing against something a person *didn't* say
rather than what they did say?

The main problem with this group is that we don't have nearly as many
cranks and nutters as formerly.  Let's all resolve to be at least
occasionally unreasonable in order to maintain mental muscle tone.

 
The problem with that idea is that I never tolerated the previous
cranks and nutters making up shit about me so, in order to maintain
the environment, I can't tolerate it from their replacements.
 

Good way to avoid following up on my points per Gould vs Teilhard or to my
posting evidence that the field of developmental biology has gotten along
fine invoking morphogenetic fields without needing Sheldrake’s spooky psi
nonsense.

 
You won't be getting any follow up now. I won't waste my limited time
trying to have a rational discussion with someone who just makes up
shit about me.
