If scientific reasoning were limited to the logical processes of arithmetic, we should not get very far in our understanding of the physical world. One might as well attempt to grasp the game of poker entirely by the use of the mathematics of probability.

Carnivalia and an open thread

Category: Carnivals • Open Thread
Posted on: November 16, 2007 9:57 PM, by PZ Myers

More carnivals, including one that is new to me!

I and the Bird #62
Friday Ark #165
Accretionary Wedge #3 (a geology carnival!)

And we have a new Tangled Bank coming up at From Archaea to Zeaxanthol next Wednesday—send those links to your science articles to me or host@tangledbank.net.

By the way, we're going to run out of hosts in January, so if you're interested in hosting, drop me a line to volunteer.

Now say something, anything here in the comments.

Obama's science+technology policy. Ars Technica has the article:

I like this tidbit:
"double federal funding for basic research"

CNN has a funny article on the FSM(I know PZ is not a fan). But it is worth reading--especially to the last line. Something called the American Academy of Religion will be discussing it.

For Ross Nixon, he should look up Pat Condell's video on "Was Jesus Gay?"
