Interesting post. I notice the mention of the John Templeton Foundation in the image.

Another day, another scandal in liberal enclave Portland. Niles Lehman, a science professor at Portland State University, has been arrested and charged with 35 counts of producing child porn....

ISSOL’s Niles Lehman & Templeton Cash Cow - https://oscillations.net/2018/04/05/issols-niles-lehman-templeton-cash-cow/

Templeton continues to pour millions of dollars into origin and evolution of life projects that result in fiasco: (1) the 2013 origins conference at CERN; (2) funding of religious scholars by NASA & Templeton to investigate how the religious community would respond to the discovery of life in outer space; (3) the dig through 18 levels of civilization for religious evidence at 10,000-year-old Çatalhöyük—to cite just a few. But science is not being compromised for big laughs, it’s being compromised by greedy academics and their university money managers who, with a wink, look the other way while Templeton’s Big Creep mission blurs the lines between science and religion.

One of the stickiest origins projects Templeton has recently funded is “Cooperation and Interpretation in the Emergence of Life,” which looks to find purposeful RNA fragments that agree to cooperate. Six hundred thirty thousand dollars ($630,000) has been awarded for said project to the team of Christopher Southgate-–a British theologian/biochemist, and Portland State University chemistry professor Niles Lehman.

Lehman was recently elected president of the nonprofit origin of life society “ISSOL” replacing Sandra Pizzarello. As ISSOL president, Lehman will now also be majorly soliciting funds, including more from Templeton.

...In 2015, the Santa Fe Institute was awarded a three year, $2.5 million grant to support the development of a general theory of complexity, constituting "a concise, parsimonious, and potentially mathematizable framework for understanding complex adaptive systems".

..One more connection in closing, Dr Lehman has co-written papers with Martin Nowak https://www.pnas.org/content/113/18/5030 . Nowak is also funded by Templeton and is one of Epstein's pets: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/3163949/18076062
