When was this?

Yay! I love SGU. I bet Rebecca Watson said something extra snarky about Crackergate.

It's too bad about those students who come to a university knowing nothing about evolutionary biology because their high school teachers were incompetent and/or intimidated by Christian thugs. The obvious solution is somehow rid the world of all religions.

Cool.
Ah - now I completely understand symmetry.
Not. :)
Must have been June, since there's talk of the upcoming Evolution 2000 meeting.
Here's the TalkOrigins page that is mentioned:

The discussion of sociopathy and leadership reminded me of the study I linked to in the comments here (reverse the causation ;)):

Can't wait for my Sunday jog with the iPod. I am tempted to listen to it now, but I will need a voice of reason as I jog through my fundamentalist, conservative town.
I'm in Michigan, and this morning I jogged past several signs in yards saying, "Vote No on 2" and "2goes2far". These were amoung other signs in ultra-religious lawns like, "Pray to End Abortion".
Proposal 2 is aimed at supporting stem cell research here in Michigan.
Vote YESSSSS on Proposal 2 !!!!

What is the name of the book PZ referred to on the podcast?
It's The Counter-Creationism Handbook, by Mark Isaak. It's at the TalkOrigins link I provided @ #8.

Nice work there PZ. That book sounds pretty cool, I should track it down sometime.

I became aware of this blog through SGU. Looking forward to listening to this one.

Amazon sells it: The Counter-Creationism Handbook
In a perfect world all creationist retards would buy this book, read it, understand it, and then throw out their childish fantasy world. Of course that will never happen. Creationists have absolutely no interest in educating themselves.
