Evolutionary Informatics - Controversy

Controversy

In 2007, Professor Robert J. Marks II included among his web pages at the Baylor University website some pages regarding an "Evolutionary Informatics Laboratory" (EIL). The university's administration subsequently removed those pages, which included unpublished scholarly papers coauthored by Marks and intelligent design advocate William A. Dembski. The EIL's website is now EvolutionaryInformatics.org. As of February August 2012, the publications portion of the Evolutionary Informatics Laboratory's website highlights seven major papers by Marks and Dembski et al. on the conservation of information and constraints on Darwinian searches. It provides a list of published papers and books on related topics by Affiliates of The Evolutionary Informatics Lab.

Famous quotes containing the word controversy:

    And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
