Bay of Fundie

PZ Myers has set up a blog carnival over at Pharyngula to combat the Creation Museum. He has collected a bunch of links about this atrocity, to make it easy for people to find real science information. Hopefully his list will help to undo some of the damage this fundie museum brain-washing tool is doing [...]

The jaw-droppingly stupid Creation Museum is opening this weekend in Kentucky. In “honor” of this event, I thought I’d re-post a podcast I made a couple of years ago, when this national embarrassment was announced. The podcast is 29 minutes long. I think you’ll enjoy it. It starts off with an item about the Scopes [...]

Christopher Hitchens may be an S.O.B., but he’s our S.O.B. Upon Jerry Falwell’s untimely demise (by which I mean it happened way too late), Hitchens wrote an article for Slate that has some brilliant lines.

The latest diatribe from Bill Johnson of the American Decency Association is called The Chutzpah of Fox. After monitoring the latest episode of Fox Television’s “Family [...]

I was in the local Barnes & Noble recently. I wandered over to the Religion section to see if there was anything especially alarming that I hadn’t seen yet. Then I discovered that next to that was a section they call Religious Fiction. Here you’ll find crap like Left Behind and other “inspiring” stories of [...]
