The NSF found a solutionTo a culture that shuns evolution:We think it is bestThat the national testMake a critical, small substitution— Since creationists find it offensiveWe are more than a bit apprehensive—So we think, if you please,It is best to appease(Besides, lawsuits get rather expensive!) Sure, it may be the coward’s way outBut religion, it …

Ruloff Shows He Really Does Understand Hitler
An in-depth interview in the Vancouver Sun shows just what an unapologetic liar and propagandist the producer of Expelled is. His research on the methods of the Nazis brings to mind a Greek saying a friend of mine once told me: “I’m listening to your words, but I’m watching your feet”. Walt Ruloff’s words, as …

I Am The Very Model Of A Devious Creationist
Ok, this is what comes of being just a bit too obsessive. On this thread over at pharyngula, is copious evidence that PZ’s commenters are a talented bunch! (Go ahead, look–you know you want to!) But somebody asked where I was, and long story short, my brain now hurts from putting the following together. (on …

Apple Of My Eye…
From Pharyngula, more of the fruit fetish argument from design (or is that argument from ignorance?). First the banana, then the orange, now the apple. Is no fruit safe? Women, hide your melons! Men, protect your kiwis! There are men out there (and it always seems to be men, doesn’t it) with designs on your …

The giraffe song (not the unicorn song)
Over on “Living the Scientific Life (Scientist, Interrupted)“, there is an unfair contest going on. Unfair, because (apparently) GrrlScientist likes graphics. “Please show us in a picture because as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words”, she says. Hmph.
