Coffee!! Hitherto unknown proud ignoramus rushes to Darwin's defense

by Denyse O'Leary
ARN correspondent

Escapes trampling by troll competitors - Tells reporters: "Real thinkers don't read books"

Here, at Amazon, the indispensable Nature of Nature (a compendium of the pro- and anti-ID writings of many of the world's best champions on either side), has attracted a "review" by one, Colonel Zen, who allows us to know that he actually has not read the book.

Well, I haven't read this ... and at their vanity press price am unlikely to, but I'd take bets.
I say"review", not review because if the Colonel has not read the book, it is not a review, by definition.

If you would like to go to the liked site and join the commenters by pointing out that fact, please do. Amazon could use your help in spotting these people and helping them find other uses of their time.

And, as it happens, I know of a job for him: He wouldbe an ideal prof for "Misshelver" and her "man": Darwinists who misshelve ID theorists' books in bookstores, to avoid "misleading" the public. (No, I am not making that up. Go here for her and here for him.) They should all get along great, as he doesn't read books and they don't let others do so.

(Note: To see the "review", go soon. It could get pulled, due to the frank admission that he hasn't read the book. Amazon is, after all, in business to sell books, not to host diatribes from people who don't read.
