AIDS denying nutjob dies.

By way of Cynical-C

Christine Maggiore dies at 52 of AIDS
Maggiore believed that virtually all the information we receive about
HIV/AIDS is wrong. She questioned the link between HIV and AIDS. She
also appeared to believe that mother’s don’t pass the disease on to
their children either in vitro or through breast feeding.
This is, of course, much [...]

Chip might get boost from song?

I can’t help but find this whole thing vaguely amusing. Let’s put
aside any thoughts of intent, racist or otherwise.
Just sending the song was moronic, very poor judgement. After getting
booted out of congress and the white house, after showing they are
seriously out of touch with the ideals of the American People, you’d
think they’d be [...]

Misunderstandings about evolution

Discovery.com
has an article on how evolution seems to have occurred in bursts (at
least in some instances). But what I wanted to point out was this:

I think there’s this misconception about how long we mean [...]

You know why Intelligent Design isn’t science

So I’m feeling all sciencey these days and just picked up ‘The Canon’
by Natalie Angier. It has a great little example in there that really

science AND why no one really thinks it is, even those who support the
idea.

People are losing their homes even with help

So reports Reuters.
Apparently, even after the mortgages are renegotiated, a few months
later over a third of the homeowners are delinquent and heading
towards foreclosure.
This isn’t particularly surprising. If I buy a house with an ARM, and
you raise that to where I can’t afford to pay the mortgage, I’ve
probably spent MONTHS falling behind on other [...]

Sometimes Catholics scare me.

And sometimes they make me laugh
THE ANSWER TO YOUR FEAR OF GOOGLING!

Atheists and Theists and Theists

If a Christian group bought some ad space on some busses advocating accepting Christ, the Jews of DC would not blink an eye.  If the Jews did something similar, there’d be no outcry from Christians.  But when atheists do it, there’s no end of venom.
Why is that?
At the core of virtually any theistic religion is [...]

Rick Warren

I was talking with a friend last night and told him I’d posted this.  Then I realized I had just ranted about it.
Rick Warren is seen as ‘bringing people together’ because it is still OK to hate fags and atheists.
