Now You Too Can Be a "Skeptic"... of Anything!

i-2a295274c065be3adc5782eb73a408e0-false_mug.jpgIf we learned anything from the Atlas of Creation, it's that we can refute any evidence, regardless of how scientifically sound it is, just by putting a red X across it and writing "FALSE". Jeremiah McNichols reflects on this at his blog Think In Pictures... and then he takes it one step further. McNichols is selling merchandise to give you the same powers of refutation as the Atlas's own Harun Yahya. Check it out here. All proceeds go to the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), so it's for a good cause.

Besides, who wouldn't want to be able to do this?

Evolution? Forget about it!

In preparing myself for Taner Edis's presentation in two days (April 3rd, 7 pm in the Alderson theater), I've done some reading about Islamic perspectives on science. It turns out that there's a group in Turkey called Harun Yahya. They've worked with American creationists like Ken Ham and Duane…

Nice link Hilton, surpassing Yahya. I particularly liked how "copycat pagans" must have used a time machine to spawn christianity. Not even woo.

I found it to be very entertaining but also very limited in its reality in the attempts to justify and explain.

Do you really believe all this. Yep there was a creator, everything was zapped into place that he even had time to try out 24 different optical vision systems for birds, many more for mammals. Yes science can not explain everything but it certainly is making attempts to do so.

Creationism is another set of aboriginal (not Australian) Dreamtime stories. Read them and you hear the voices of primitive man trying to make sense of their then world.

just another right wing attempt to understand something that they have no concept of. creationism was all fine and dandy before science started to explain everything. this book is like trying to say that a bluebird isnt blue... its red because the bible says so, when any person with any sense can see that a bluebird is in fact... you guessed it.... blue.
