Title: Science should be more than "Presto, Abra-cadabra, Shazam!"
Product review: Behe claims that blood clotting could not have developed by chance. Ken Miller from Brown University says "it could have happened by chance, here's how"; then he then goes on to create a fanciful scenario filled with random mutations and natural selection and non-existent, hypothetical creatures that just "happen" to have the necessary organs and systems to develop blood clotting. Unfortunately for Miller, scientists Lynn Margulis and Dorian Sagan state in their recent book, "Acquiring Genomes," that there is no evidence that random mutation and natural selection have ever produced a new species or a new organ. Thus Miller's scientific rebuttal to Behe amounts to nothing more than "Presto, Abra-cadabra, Shazam!" I think I will have to side with Behe on this one.
