D ear Editor: The Observer has graciously allowed me to r------respond to Josh Ozersky's remarks of Sept. 28. Rather than continue a pointless rhetorical spar ring match, I will try to shed light on why the ~ issue of bringing Philip Johnson to campus to cri tique Darwinian evolution generated so much controversy. As to why Josh Ozersky was initially worked up about Johnson coming here, I can only guess. His first column gave the impression that he regarded Johnson's visit as part of a (crypto-?) fundamentalist plot to infiltrate Notre Dame with ideas of a six thousand year old earth and a geo centric universe. It is not clear what Josh meant by the term "fundamentalist" (of course, this term is much more effective in rhetorical debate if left unde fmed). In the present context, I would think of a fundamentalist as someone who feels con strained to conform geological and biological his tory to the six twenty-four hour days of Genesis. I personally do not know of any questioner ol Darwinism at Notre Dame who would insist on this, though some probably do. Philip Johnson clearly does not. Therefore, to infuse the discus empirical verification as things such as the theo sion with this terminology doesn't seem to help ry's explanatory power, how many new avenues matters much. of inquiry it opens up, how well it predicts new Josh's second column expressed a more legiti phenomena, or simply its elegance. mate concern: Johnson is a non-scientist, seem This, it seems to me, is what makes the present ingly biased against Darwinian evolution, who is controversy so interminable. Law professors like criticizing a scientific theory. This gets much Philip Johnson want to see hard evidence, as in closer to the heart of the issue, I believe, which the case of the Holocaust, that evolution is really was essentially a turf battle between science and true. They have a hard time making a logical other disciplines with Josh Ozersky, historian, as leap from changing finch beaks to whole species the unlikely champion of the scientific turf. Let evolving by chance variations. Scientists either me explain: offer evidence of the finch beak sort or, as repre Josh has likened criticism of Darwinism to sented in Josh's columns, tell him it's none of his holocaust revisionism. There are some obvious business. Neither reply is very satisfying. flaws to that comparison, but perhaps it will be So then, each side has a legitimate gripe. enlightening as well. To those who question the Scientists may be right about evolution, but due historicity of the Holocaust, historians-on whose to the nature of the thing they can't simply pre turf this issue legitimately falls-could respond in sent evidence of the sort that a non-scientist two ways.
