Antievolution law proposed in Florida
It's not a hurricane or even a tropical storm. But a small knot of ignorance is twisting through the Florida state senate.
Late last week, Stephen R. Wise (R-District 5) filed Senate Bill 2396, which if passed,…
How Religion and Science Interact and the Issue of Evolution
A featured speaker at Westminster College's 2012 Symposium on Religious Experience in a Global Society, Dr. Eugenie Scott, Executive Director of the National Center for Science Education (Oakland, California), discusses religion, science…
A life science teacher should not have to know about creationism to teach evolution, other than to the extent that you may cover the history of evolutionary biology, and begin in the days before science took center stage and natural philosophy was dragged off with one of those big vaudeville hooks…

Good luck getting the computers to work when education has been replaced with religious dogma. But I assume they can hire qualified workers from Mexico or Khazakstan...(cue Borat doing his thing)
Piltdown Man = Captain Patriot = Evolution Denier = Guardian of the Poll. If it's a Poe, it does a remarkable job of periodically sliding off into violent frothing for versimilitude's sake.
Nice overview. I am still waiting for Texas to rejoin Mexico and start leaving us alone.
Piltdown man: Very funny!
@Piltdown:
Where are you getting this stuff about MacTurk's country? For that matter, where are you getting this gay-worship stuff? I don't think even Conservapedia is that crazy.
