More on unsafe food additives

Between melamine and diethylene glycol, most of my attention this past week has been on unsafe food and drug additives in products imported into the US and other countries.

Science Literacy and the New Atheist Ideology: Rethinking Definitions and Relevance

Next week there will be big news on the science communication front. In anticipation, I was just going back over some things that I have written on the topic over the past decade. I ran across an essay I wrote for Skeptical Inquirer from 2003, which I posted below the fold.

Ooh, but you see, the probability of those changes exhibiting specified complexity is a constant divided by the time, so nothing new ever happens.

Wow. Funny, and I wish I could use this in my high school classroom, but of course I can't. For that matter, the cartoonist will be the subject of a fatwa once certain Muslims get wise to this one. Islam has always prohibited any visual representation of the Prophet, and I don't think calling him 'Mo' is going to placate some folks...SH

Hey thanks! I wonder why I never see these cartoons in my local family newspaper? Hmmm...

I also wonder why the cartoonist never shows the barmaid. I bet she's hot.

Thank you, thank you PZ for introducing me to Jesus and Mo! When I looked at yesterday's strip I had tears rolling down my face at Mo's line "Does a bear transubstantiate?"

I am the author of Jesus and Mo, and I can confirm that the barmaid is hot.

(Thanks for the link, PZ)

These are great, aren't they? I even found the one where the hotness of the barmaid is revealed:

So, kmiers, which one is it? Please post a picture. And by the way, just how many nights a week do you get Jesus and Mohammed in your bar?

Sorry, messed up the link. I'm only a biologist, folks.

What is a "Baby Spice"? That said, I would have to say Pamela Anderson. Before the boob job. And I thank whatever is is I feel like attributing satisfaction to THIS week that most of my clients are more enlightened than J 'n' Mo. After all I have been cultivating toward this outcome for many years. J and Mo feel uncomfortable sitting at my bar.
