When Disco Dudes Attack

Mon, Jul 28, 2008 at 12:49 pm PDT

Bruce Chapman of the Discovery Institute says I made false claims about them, but he doesn’t actually dispute a single fact in my LGF article. I was going to ignore this post at their anti-evolution blog, but on second reading it struck me as a pretty good example of the ...

Penn and Teller Take on Creationism

Sat, Jul 26, 2008 at 12:23 pm PDT

It’s our favorite libertarian-ish anti-idiotarian magicians, with a whole episode of Bullsh*t! devoted to ... yes ... creationism and its repackaged descendant, “intelligent design.” (Screams and pandemonium ensue.) Featuring footage from the Creation Museum, and interviews with some people whose names are often invoked during the LGF Evolution Wars, including ...

Turkish Creationists Turned Away By Israeli Academia

Tue, Jul 15, 2008 at 3:00 pm PDT

In Israel, Hebrew University canceled a “reconciliation conference” with a group of Turkish Muslim “scholars” when they learned that the Turks planned to include anti-evolution propaganda.

Tue, Jul 1, 2008 at 5:14 pm PDT

One hundred fifty years ago today, a paper was read to the Linnaean Society of London, and the scientific theory of evolution was born. Darwin was still working on his magnum opus when in June 1858 he received a letter from an English naturalist working in Malaysia. Alfred Russel ...
