Here is a supposedly scientific theory bearing no relationship to any empirical reality ever observed.

LOLOL!!! Exactly how I feel!

If just loved this: "If Hamilton's theory were true, we should expect to find incest widespread. In fact, it is taboo." Evidently, Steven Pinker is particularly incensed to find a taboo here. It puzzles him.... That is, he can't explain it.

But here is the piece de resistance:

"Because their theory of man is badly wrong, they say that man is badly wrong; that he incorporates many and grievous biological errors." But the one thing a scientific theory may never do, Stove observes, is "reprehend the facts."

Great post, SJackson! Thank you so much!
