Proven… through Science!
I wasn’t going to post this, since it’s just a content-less bit of an obviously insane person embarrassing himself, until I realised this Frank Tipler cowrote a book on teleology and the anthropic principle (guess which stance he took) with John Barrow, which finally explained why Barrow was awarded the Templeton Prize. It’s sad, when giving people the benefit of the doubt turns out to be the wrong thing to do~
I feel sorry for his students, who actually have to sit through his classes and try to get this idiot to give them a passing grade. Though if you’re going to college in Louisiana, I guess you should be expecting this sort of thing anyway.
I do like how he kind of drew a banana on the blackboard, though.
(Via RichardDawkins.net, where a commenter points out Victor Stenger (of God: The Failed Hypothesis fame) responded to Tipler.)
