This happens often? I remember recently a "scientist" tried to get published in Nature and when Nature didn't publish his article he got mad, talking about "discrimination." In reality his article was of very low quality and had no evidence so he just ended up making a fool of himself.

This is of course irreverent to what we were talking about. Changing the subject doesn't change the meaning of evolution when scientists talk about it. It's not like science is perfect or anything though.
