      You mean that the core thesis of the piece is against the principles of modern physics / scientific theories?

      All Reza's 'arguments' end up as nebulous appeals to authority. "Experts agree mumble mumble."

      ... Crushing headline: "Most senior professors say 'no' to Cosmic Darwinism." Cosmic Darwinism remains shockingly unintimidated.

      Yes, because it remains as a gnosis that only exists in your head into which you can plug your social darwinism at whim.

      You say that, but your only argument ever is "but ... but ... but daddy told me!" Lee Smolin means I can ignore the ludicrous credential stamp you're always waving about.

      Be weary of Smolin. Thief of research. Ask @bhekukhumalo

      Replying to @CRobska @Outsideness and

      There are two fundamentally controversial aspects about Smolin's thesis: (1) Unfalsifiability of the central claim and the leap from premises to the consequence that is not necessarily entailed by them (i.e., that our universe is optimal for formation of black holes).

      According to Smolin's own scenario, the actual consequence derived from his set of premises is that most of the universes are optimal for black hole formation, not that our universe is essentially following that telos.

          The second damning aspect is that his thesis attempts to explain everything, but by doing so it becomes oblivious to the fact that what it doesn't explain is why physical laws are this way rather than another, or why quantum gravity is true.

          To be honest I knew nothing of Lee Smolin until I heard him on @CBCToronto introduced as a big shot from @Perimeter, shocked to hear my words word for word, what I had been saying for last 3 years. I got home and sent links to @CBCQuirks look these are my words...
