Jeffrey Shallit has already replied to this deeply silly opinion piece from biologist J. Scott Turner. But there is so much inanity in Turner's piece that I couldn't resist taking a shot at it myself. A subscription is required to read the essay online, but I think I've quoted enough of it to give you a pretty good idea. Comments can be left over at EvolutinBlog. Enjoy!
