		<description><![CDATA[During my recent lecture series on science and religion, I tried to make clear that science includes many beliefs in addition to hard facts while religions encompasses hard facts in addition to many beliefs. So what about the fuzzy approach of intuition or educated guess in a prototypical biological experiment? If this is not just [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mutation accumulation in the human genome is a largely neglected research field. Most mutations have a very small effect (if any) and may be compensated by environmental improvements. I have already argued in that way in the 2003 Triple T paper and will reiterate it soon in PLOS medicine (just found that James Crow 1997 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A decade ago Karen Hunter (at that time Senior Vice President of Elsevier) did a brilliant analysis why scientists publish: For academic scientists, the research paradigm is the experiment and the publication output is a journal article.

		<description><![CDATA[I do not want to discuss here the rather polemic view of Daniel Dennetts &#8220;Breaking the spell&#8221; and other books as the new secularism is &#8220;suddenly hip&#8221; as the Guardian digital edition writes on 29th Oct 2006 Secularism is suddenly hip, at least in the publishing world.
