I almost feel sorry for Nancy Pearcey. Almost. Nick Matzke shreds the poor woman, and I felt a faint twinge of sympathy…but such ignorance and mendacity deserves the treatment she gets.

Random Quote
In a footnote to the Supreme Court's 1961 Torcaso v. Watkins decisions, Justice Hugo Black wrote, 'Among religions in this country which do not teach what would generally be considered a belief in the existence of God is Buddhism, Taoism, Ethical Culture, Secular Humanism, and others.' The Torcaso case dealt with religious tests for public office; it has nothing to do with public schools. The justice's comment is far from a finding that humanism is being taught in the schools.

As Ms. Pearcey says, "the logic of ID is different from Creationism." And she clearly spells out the difference:
"(C)reationism was founded by people who were bible-believing christians ... But that's not the way you talk to people who don't share your beliefs."

Caught lying and cheating.
Red-handed.
Will this make any difference?
