→Health issues and previous poor health habits
It is my contention that evolution is, from a scientific perspective, an almost totally irrelevant sideshow. The number of scientists who have actually used evolution for anything over the last 150 years is dwarfed by the number of scientists who are still desperately trying to provide a scientific foundation for TENS. The only reason evolution is assumed to be of such presumed importance is due to its philosophical usefulness to [[materialism|materialist]] philosophers and pedopropagandists like [[Richard Dawkins]].<ref>[http://voxday.blogspot.com/2011/09/questions-for-evolutionists.html Questions for Evolutionist]</ref>}}

== Rebuke by atheist Michael Nugent relative to the area of social justice ==
[[File:Michael Nugent.jpg|thumbnail|right|175px|[[Michael Nugent]] ]]
The Irish atheist Michael Nugent wrote to PZ Myers in September of 2014:
{{cquote|Some of the content of your blog is hurtful and unjust in itself, it also undermines the effectiveness of attempts to promote compassion and empathy and social justice, and it is additionally harmful because of your prominence as a perceived spokesperson for organised atheism...
PZ, is this really how you want to be remembered? Having defended you against unjust attacks from others, I am now asking you to take a long hard look at what you are doing, consider apologising to people who you have unjustly hurt and defamed, and start focusing on actually promoting compassion and empathy and social justice if those ideas are important to you.<ref>[http://www.michaelnugent.com/2014/09/19/the-lbj-legend-and-my-email-to-pz-myers/ The LBJ legend and my email to PZ Myers] by Michael Nugent on September 19, 2014</ref>}}
Due to its notability requirements, the pro-evolution website [[Wikipedia]] (which was founded by an atheist and agnostic), does not make mention of any specific accomplishments PZ Myers may have achieved in the area of social justice. Wikipedia does mention the social justice accomplishments of Christians such as [[William Wilberforce]], [[Harriet Beecher Stowe]] and others.
