Charles Darwin Accused Of Theft

It’s unsupported claim time. Roy Davies, an author, has written a book, The Darwin Conspiracy: Origins Of A Scientific Crime, claiming that Charles Darwin stole the work of naturalist Alfred Russell Wallace and presented it as his own. The “theft” supposedly occured when Wallace wrote to Darwin. Conspiracy by snail mail. A UK article explains:
[Davies] [...]

Defeating Darwinism In 4 Easy Steps… Not

I enjoy reading PZ Myers’ blog Pharyngula, because he digs up the worst right-wing religious nutbars. And I get to comment on them, too. He found Bryan Fischer, a truly deluded fool. And hungry for more creationist foolery, I sifted through Fischer’s garbage – I mean archive – and went straight for his article on [...]

Michael Medved Is A Tool

Over at scienceblogs.com biologist PZ Myers has dumbo Michael Medved in a headlock for commenting on “American DNA” and race, two subjects Medved, obviously, knows nothing about.
Well, I dug through Medved’s archives and found this piece of garbage.
Actually, there’s little chance that atheists will succeed in placing one of their own in the White House [...]

GEICO Caveman Speaks Up On Evolution

Remember this? Sherri Sheppherd, one of the hosts of that vacuous show The View, stated last year that she didn’t believe in evolution and that she didn’t know if the Earth was flat or not. Well, one of the stars from the ABC show Cavemen paid her a visit. Sadly, Cavemen was cancelled months [...]

Ben Stein – Creationist Of The Month

I offically declare Ben Stein as May’s creationist of the month. He earns his position for his ignorance and sleazy behavior.
In Expelled: The Movie, Ben Stein attempts to draw a link between Charles Darwin and the Holocaust by misreading a quote from Darwin’s famous book The Descent Of Man. Scientific America Magazine explains with an article:
One of the many egregious moments in the new Ben Stein [...]

The Great Darwinian Conspiracy

Dissect any creationist’s arguments and you’ll eventually uncover a belief in a worldwide Darwinian conspiracy. Scientists everywhere are hiding the truth of creation and teaching evolution as part of a vague shadowy plot to destroy religion and to corrupt the world’s youth with liberal ideas. Why should scientists do this? Is it for that sweet [...]

Making Fun Of Religion. Will It Send Me To Hell?

I like the humor, but I disagree with including atheism in a list of shitty religions. It’s not a religion. This is why atheists argue so much amongst themselves. Freethinking is just that, free. And come to think of it, Taoism and Buddhism shouldn’t be in there either. Meditating and contemplating your place in the universe isn’t [...]

Laughing At Creationist Ben Stein

I’m shocked at how little Ben Stein knows about evolution. And I’m surprised by him blatantly connecting intelligent design and religion. For years, intelligent design promoters struggled to cast ID as a science. But here is Ben Stein sitting down with that disgusting clown, Pat Robertson. I think Stein’s legacy will [...]

Chuck Norris’ Review Of Expelled: The Movie

Chuck Norris has written his own review, of sorts, of Expelled: the Movie. It’s actually more of an endorsement than a review, since he really doesn’t describe the movie in any detail. He just makes a sucking noise as he presses his lips up against Ben Stein’s ass. On to the comedy… I mean review.
I [...]
