So your masters are lying to you as usual, and you are doing your god-damndest to perpetuate the lie, eh, Applet?

Here is an excerpt from a letter from an official of the French National Centre of Scientific Research in response to a request for information on this claim. Note this is in precisely the same vein as various others of your misinformation which are so often shown to be bogus: DIRECTLY FROM THE SOURCE USED BY YOU AND YOUR CRETINIST COHORTS. This particular person was a bit more reserved than Kyle Davies, who said flat-out that you are liar, but the result is identical.

<Begin quote from letter>:

The new director general of the CNRS [i.e., the National Center for Scientific Research in France], Mr. Guy Aubert, has given me your letter in which you requested several points of information concerning the quotations by French scientists, concerning the theory of evolution.

As far as we know, Louis Bounoure never served as "Director" (nor was even a member) of the CNRS. He was a professor of biology at the University of Strasbourg. Bounoure was a Christian but did not affirm that Genesis was to be taken to the letter. He expressed his ideas in his work. He is clearly "finalist" and against all contingent visions of evolution. ["Finalism" is a philosophical term related to a belief in ultimate purpose or design behind everything, including, in this case, the evolution of the cosmos and of life. - ED.] He bases his views, among other things, on the existence of elements that are pre-adapted for their future functions.

This is the information that I am able to give you. if you would like to have more details, you could write to Jean Staune, Institut de Paleontologie Humaine, 1 rue Rene Panhard - 75013 Paris. This institute is associated with our own: The National Center of Scientific Research.

Very truly yours, Marie-Antoinette de Lumley
