I have read several books by Phil Johnson and the overwhelming issue I
recall is that he keeps warning people of the misuse scientists make of
science by turning their science into a philosophy. PJ tries to make clear
what science is and what it is not. I cannot quote him and my poor memory
does not allow me to even put his views into my own words but that is what I
recall. Moorad
