I've read enough of Coyne's work to know that he's a crazy old geezer who clearly has irreligious motivations in keeping biology stuck in a time of ignorance, when Darwin's theory actually seemed plausible, but this is worse than I ever imagined.
You've lost, Jerry. Darwin's theory is long dead. You'll have to find something new to use as a crutch for your God-denialism.
Kudos to Dr. Haught for showing some personal and professional dignity in being outraged by Coyne's bizarre and dangerous behavior.
Between Richard Dawkins' now-legendary ducking of the masterful William Lane Craig, and the public exposition of Coyne's irrational mindset, it's been a very bad few weeks for the Gnu Atheists and their flock of sheeple.
