It has been a long time since I've updated this blog as I'm using another
site for sharing quick thoughts, but this piece of information was interesting enough as to share it in a more specific way.
I'm pretty much amused about the amount of new information regarding evolution, creationism, the particle of God and so on that pop up into some of my "feeds" (lots directly from my contacts) so it seems like it should be an interesting topic to me, but it gets more and more unappealing, maybe because the "disinformation" the "sci media" creates all around. To anyone interesting on these topics I'll recommend two books, one from 1925 by G.K. Chesterton called The Everlasting Man (you can find it online), which doesn´t address the topic itself but I think it can shed some lights about some of the ideas behind this "disinformation". The second one is much more modern, it's written by
Francis S. Collins noted for his landmark discoveries of disease genes and his leadership of the
Human Genome Project (HGP) and is called The Language of God. I know these are not the usual books that you'll be pointed to when researching these topics and that´s why I'm doing it here.
Getting back to the initial intent for this post here is the
link to the article I've cited first. It sounded earth shattering to me at least in my very first reading. It's interesting seeing how new discoveries can change much of the assumptions we have now. I'd love to see how this gets addressed in the near future, how the changes this and lot of other research papers get used in refining old theories and creating new ones (better than the old ones I hope) and how this is addressed by the scientific community.
