Pathetic, that's what it is

So said Eeyore. But equally, it could describe this - Dembski has noticed the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Society, and so wants to be like Dawkins:

Anybody who is willing and able to upgrade the look, feel, and functionality of this site (Uncommon Descent) to match that of the Dawkins site will receive three of my books autographed. What a deal. Think it over.

Wow.

The latest panty-twisting at Uncommon Descent is over the Blasphemy Challenge. The poor dears are so concerned about all the heretics damning themselves that DaveScot is moved to weep and pray over them, and William Dembski writes a letter to Richard Dawkins asking him why he doesn't expand the…
There was an annoying interview with Richard Dawkins in Salon yesterday, which, unfortunately, I wasn't able to read until today because… …I was getting the story straight from the horse's mouth. The interview is annoying, not because of Dawkins, but because of the interviewer. It leads in with…
Well, Richard Dawkins had his little run-in with Bill O'Reilly tonight. No doubt surprised to have an A-list guest on his show, O'Reilly managed to keep the stupidity to a minimum (though, as we shall see, he certainly did not manage to eliminate it entirely). He was also on his best behavior.…
Wow. Just wow. I realize that I haven't exactly been enamored of Richard Dawkins lately, at least not as much as I was, say, three or four years ago. Most of this came about gradually, although the final nail was driven into the proverbial coffin last fall, when Atheist Alliance International…

If you downgrade it to the level of a ten-year-old's scribblings, which would match the content, will he accept copies of his books you don't want?

That's like THREE reasons not to work on the site!

Hey, improve my blog site and I'll put flaming bags of dog poop on your doorstep for an entire year!

I'm far more excited to find out that Winnie the Pooh is reproduced on the web. Bedtime stories on my 'puter. What fun.

A few months back, I bought and read a collection of essays called Intelligent Thought: Science versus the Intelligent Design Movement which debunks ID from different points of view. In the interest of fair play, but perhaps in a weak moment, I also bought Dembski's Intelligent Design. After reading about seventy five pages of that, I'd had quite enough. Now I have this book I don't know what to do with. I can't, in all good conscience, pawn it off on someone else, I'm not able to recycle it, to throw it away would be bad for the environment and to burn it would be flying in the face of the First Amendment. I don't need a doorstop and none of the legs on my furniture need to be propped up either so, if anyone can offer any creative uses for it, let me know. :)
