Pharyngula covers the hilarious but wholly unsurprising fact that Ray “Bananaman” Comfort’s gambit against Darwin’s 150th anniversary is one big failure, all because of Comfort’s own moral failings.
The copy-&-paste creationist is a familiar figure in internet debates — they don’t have an original idea in their head, but they know how to copy some long screed off the internet and paste it into a comment box, almost always without attribution, or even a link back to their source. I am completely unsurprised by the fact that Ray Comfort is a plagiarist who ripped off a brief biography of Darwin.
The ridiculous and often-debunked assertions of Darwin being Hitler’s BFF and irreducible complexity being a viable line of argumentation are his own, but the actual biographical info was a complete bite. Will anything happen to him as a result? Will he be made to own his inability to do anything right?
I seriously doubt it.
