Ex-Pope Benedict says The Selfish Gene is science fiction. He's half right
27.09.2013 21:24
The former Pope Benedict XVI has
referred to The Selfish Gene as
science fiction in a long letter to an
Italian atheist, published in La
Republicca. This is not really fair to
the book, nor to science fiction, but
does capture an important point
about popular science. What sells is
not the stuff...
