The post links to another nice article from NetworkWorld - “10 Reasons You Shouldn’t Believe In UFOs.” There are certainly more than 10 reasons

Good Show, Good Show Far Right
Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008If you ever need to prove you are an ignorant simpleton, just do something like Pastor Roger Byrd and put on the church street sign:
“Obama, Osama, hmm, are they brothers?”
The article points out the pastor claims to be trying to get people to think - but specifically questions Obama’s religious affiliation, and specifically implies that […]
Hooray for Intelligent Design and Creationism
Thursday, April 10th, 2008BBC News is reporting on a legged snake fossil. This is a huge win for the creationist crowd as this new transitional fossil offers two new gaps the ’stupid evolutionists’ don’t have a fossil for: the one legged snake and the three legged snake. Where previously there was only one gap - legs or no […]
Intolerant?
Sunday, March 16th, 2008This post has seen a few responses, more than I thought it would since it really just links to people funnier and smarter than i am. Yet, I feel the comments need to be addressed.
The first comment I’m convinced is a satire. ‘Nuff said.
The second is more interesting. The implication that atheists are tolerant is […]

Creationism: funnier than you thought
Sunday, February 17th, 2008It’s easy to skewer the arguments of creationists, especially those as silly as the Answers in Genesis folks, but to do it with with both logic and humor, that is fun. Case in point, a recent post from Happy Jihad’s House of Pancakes.
Enjoy.

What Computers Tell Us About God?
Friday, February 15th, 2008Here is a fantastically flawed presentation titled What do computers tell us about God?”, supposedly written by a candidate for a dual masters (Computer Science/Technology and Policy) at MIT, which is hard to believe since Comp Sci students should have a pretty good handle on logic, seeing as logic is the foundation of computer science.
To […]

Candidates and Evolution
Sunday, January 13th, 2008The Carpetbagger Report has this article on where the candidates stand on evolution. Not surprisingly, Democrats show better for evolution, and Republicans continue to show great ignorance for science.
I was shocked to see there was something I could agree with Romney on “‘“In my opinion, the science class is where to teach evolution.’” Wow, maybe […]

More Debate on Design
Sunday, December 30th, 2007Via Digg, a reprint of a Natural History essay debate between our favorite IDiots, Behe, Dembski and Wells and some more level minded evolutionary biologists. The usual arguments from the ID crowd are present, and the usual strong refutations. This is a good read for anyone new to the debate looking for a clear and […]

Silly Advertising
Thursday, December 27th, 2007My lovely wife pointed out that sometimes there are Google Ads on this blog that don’t really fit the content. I put some hopefully unobtrusive Google Ads here in hopes that I can cover the hosting costs for this site (they don’t), while not interfering with the content (hopefully I succeeded there).
What cracks me up […]

Economic Religion Geekery
Wednesday, December 26th, 2007I’m a bit of an econ geek in addition to a general science geek, one of my favorite econ blogs, Organizations and Markets has a post on a few papers applying economic analysis to aspects of religion. Some very interesting stuff, and an instructive way of thinking about why religion has persisted so long despite […]
