World Nut Daily does it again

Do you not rejoice at the endless display of insanity that is the World Net Daily? I am utterly in awe of this website's ability to draw such a huge audience, while simultaneously being one of the ugliest, more poorly presented idiot "news" sites on the planet. It looks like the late 90's puked all over this thing. Today's crusty old man with a religious chip on his shoulder is one David Kupelian, whose art ...

Why journalists can’t help but put “evolution is wrong” in their headlines

I regularly read "The Guardian". They normally have a pretty decent science coverage, but the latest article entitled "Why everything you know about evolution is wrong" outraged me enough I felt the need to talk about it. The article starts simply enough, referring to the burgeoning science of epigenetics, and how some researchers are finding genes that become expressed due to environmental factors can effe ...

Teach the Controversy

Here's a great video from Atheist Cartoons showing just how ridiculous the notion of "teach the controversy" really is. If every bullshit controversy was allowed to be part of a school curriculum, there would be no end to the nonsense kids would be exposed to. If you want to try and teach your kids the nonsense that is creationism, do it on your own damn time, and leave the rest of us out of it! ...

Smithsonian gives shitty creationist movie the boot

The more evidence we gather showing the truth about evolution, the more vitriolic creationists get. Recently they tried to sneak a shitty "documentary" called Darwin's Dilemma into the Smithsonian's IMAX theater, but they were smacked down when the California Science Center used a special clause in the contract to cancel their engagement. The Discovery Institute is now trying to sue the CSC for not allowing ...

Majority of Britons want creationism taught in schools (WTF???)

I'm frustrated this morning. I just finished reading this article, and I have to admit that I'm very disappointed in our Commonwealth Big Brother. A recent poll indicates more than half of Britons support the teaching of both creationism and evolution in schools. That's actually more than their American counterparts. You guys are officially the new retard on the block. So feel proud that Egyptians were thre ...

Bill Hicks on Creationism

It's a shame Bill Hicks isn't around anymore to help us fight the scourge of creationism. If he thought that shit was bad back in the 90's, imagine how he would feel about schools including ID in biology class, or removing the age of the universe from science textbooks. He'd be all over that shit like white on rice. (props to Jeff for the find) ...

Who wants to buy a Creationist Theme Park?

If you've never heard of Ken Hovind, then allow me to relieve your ignorance. My friend Jeff practically had an obsession with the guy, and I've watched hours of videos of this creationist moron trying to prove the Earth is only a few thousand years old. Kent had a Creationist Amusement park for a while, but he failed to pay any taxes for a decade (he claimed he was employed by God, and therefore exempt fro ...

Don’t read this version of “On the Origin of Species”

Creationism is alive and well in the United States. Despite their laughingly terrible arguments, backers of 'Intelligent Design' continue to flood educational institutions with materials they hope will throw doubt on the truth of evolution by means of natural selection. Their latest tactic is this book; a republication of Darwin's On the Origin of Species with a twist; the introduction is a 50 page attack o ...

Religious wacko facing dismisal sues school district

You can't keep a good psycho down, apparently. John Freshwater is an eighth grade science teacher who denies evolution, used a high voltage lab tool in class to burn crosses on the arms of students, and told them homosexuals are evil sinners. The district first suspended him after hearing the allegations, and announced last June (yeah, the story isn't exactly "fresh" here) they were canning him. Now Freshwa ...
