Random Quote
God: The Immutable One, though somewhat different for each person, denomination, religion, society, and historical period. The omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, all-wise, infinite mind who — for strictly personal reasons — makes a point of seeming to be an impotent, know-nothing, nowhere, bumbling oaf.
[Rev. Donald Morgan]

One Hundred and Fifty Years without Darwin are Enough
Category: Creationism
This story, if true, is rather sad. 2009 will be a major date for evolutionary biology, both the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth, and the 150th of the publication of the Origin (note to self: must publish earth-shaking treatise on...

That helps
Category: Politics
Yesterday was a long, busy day of driving, ferrying offspring about, and I listened to a lot of NPR. All I heard, over and over again, was talk about Henry Paulson and his new position as Treasury Secretary. Not a...

Birdnow is back
Category: Creationism
I'd almost forgotten Timothy Birdnow. He's the embarrassingly ignorant property manager who claimed to have refuted Darwin, but instead made a whole series of foolish blunders; I pinned him down on one point he'd made, and asked him to...

Evo-devo wars
Category: Science
Fellow scienceblogger Evolgen has seen the light—evo-devo is wonderful. He's attending a meeting and listening to some of the bigwigs in the field talk about their work, in particular some research on the evolution of gene regulation. While noting that...

Maybe she has a really good saving throw, though

I've got good news and I've got bad news for Clara Jean Brown. Worried about the safety of her family during a stormy Memorial Day trip to the beach, Clara Jean Brown stood in her kitchen and prayed for their...

Is there a teratologist in the house?
Category: Weirdness
Call me perverse, but my first thought on seeing this kid was that I desperately want to see an x-ray of the pectoral girdle. It looks to me from this one picture that the lower arm must lack a...
