Newton and Einstein made sense of it all and the grand design theory is just a load of nonsense

NOT idly did Richard Dawkins include the word ‘delusion’ in the title of his latest bestseller, The God Delusion.

While assuming that, like the majority of his colleagues, he is a decent man with an honest devotion to his calling, what he says about the nature of the planets and their orbits is the greatest load of nonsense I have read in a long time.

It was nonsense when first dreamed up in the murky mists of time. It is nonsense post-Newton and post-Einstein when a very clear explanation for the orbits is available to any school student.
