As if to prove my point…

So, as if to prove my point about religious views being pointless in any debate other than theological:

“Studies show no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than a few decades,” Kern said in the recorded comments. “It is not a lifestyle that is good for this nation.”
Kern, who was joined at the [...]

MAN-COW!!

Oh, Man-Cow, we hardly new ye

FSM means rational people aren’t neutral? are religious? What?

So, as you’ve probably heard, at some courthouse in Crossville, Tennasee, there’s now a statue of the Flying Spaghetti Monster (along with Jesus, etc.).
Someone, apparently, is quite upset by the whole thing.  Its not completely clear what he is upset about, but at the very least he is poorly informed about almost everything he discusses.  As [...]

Yes, Iraq is almost good to go and global warming is a hoax

If, as Ms. Bachmann says, things are so good in Iraq, why are people still blowing up?And, if she can’t read the body count, why should anyone listen to her on global warming?
Bachmann on: McCain, global warming and the media (The Political Animal)
Bachmann recalled having Christmas Eve dinner with General Patraeus, who told [...]

The Daily Mail Don’t Know Robots

Creationists who aren’t hypocrits are OK

Look, it seems to me that if you are a creationist, you must believe that god takes a very VERY active role in human affairs (having created us out of dust and all).  That role must preempt any mortal activity, including science.  Science tells us the earth is billions of years old, but creationists say [...]

Of course the HPV Vaccination shouldn’t be mandatory.

Only sluts and whores will get HPV.
(like those pesky Negro girls, who we all know are sluts and whores)
(and, apparently, 1 in 5 non-Negroes who are also obviously sluts and whores or who have horrible parents who don’t raise them as good christians)
CDC study says at least 1 in 4 teen girls has a sexually [...]

Title IX for Science?

Well, I hate it when I agree with Ms. Malkin, but I ended up at the following link from her site.
While I think it is probably a good idea to shift the narrow focus of how science programs and research are handled, the idea that, because the nature of the beast isn’t pleasant to many [...]

McCain Isn’t Just A War Hero, He’s A Scientist

This just makes me sad. Mostly because this guy is following the same patterns as, say, our current C-In-C. He talks about things he knows nothing about.
First, he talks about tax cuts and tax breaks, etc., all while admitting he knows very little about economics.
Now he’s talking about medicine, which, apparently, being a [...]
