I am a theoretical physicist and retired Director of UCITE (University Center for Innovation in Teaching and Education) at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. My latest book THE GREAT PARADOX OF SCIENCE: Why its conclusions can be relied upon even though they cannot be proven was published by Oxford University Press in December 2019. I am the author of three other books: God vs. Darwin: The War Between Evolution and Creationism in the Classroom (2009), The Achievement Gap in US Education: Canaries in the Mine (2005), and Quest for Truth: Scientific Progress and Religious Beliefs (2000).

    Shocking new sport

    I linked recently to Stephen Colbert’s report on the new sport of freestyle canoe dancing. It turns out that there is another exotic new sport that will appeal to the more ‘macho’ types (aka stupid young men) and that is Ultimate Taser Ball. [Read more…]

    Orly Taitz loses California senate primary

    I have bad news.

    Orly Taitz lost her bid to become California’s next senator. She came in fifth in the primary, garnering 3.1% or 121,000 votes, which is not too shabby. [Read more…]

    John Lewis on The Colbert Report

    I had heard of long-time Georgia congressman John Lewis and his role in the civil rights movement but had never actually seen him. I found this interview with Stephen Colbert quite moving. [Read more…]

    You can’t say they didn’t warn us

    Opponents of same sex marriage kept saying that if we allowed it, then it would open the floodgates to every possible combination of marriage, even involving turtles.
