We are scientists - you are clowns

Professor Nicholas Gotelli (University of Vermont) was invited to debate one of the clowns at the Discovery Institute.Click here for the full text of their invitation and the Prof's devastating rebuttal where he declines the invitation.

Man I wish I could put people down this precisely whilst remaining polite at all times - it'd be an awesome superpower, just call me Captain CutDown!

Zing!
