Ooh, that's good! You should have pinged me!

(Though I must admit, watching Barbara Boxer has given me my first reservations about "Intelligent Design.")

It's always amazed me about how little the FR evolutionists actually address anything scientific. To his credit, RWP probably has the greatest percentage of science in his posts though the logical fallacies remain.

I cleaned it up a little. I had a hard time deciding if they were scientific reasons or logical reasons.

The Top 10 Scientific Reasons to Believe in Evolution (as presented by its FR apologists)

10 No scientist believes in creation and if he does, he is not a scientist.

9 You only THINK you see design.

8 Creationists have an agenda. Evolutionists do not.

7 Anything but evolution is religion.

6 Creationists have nothing but Genesis for evidence.

5 Theory now means fact, so evolution is a fact.

4 The Founders were creationists only because they were ignorant.

3 Answering creationist arguments is the same as refuting them.

2 We have a mountain of overwhelming evidence that proves evolution but we forgot where we put it.

1 If you do not believe in evolution, you do not understand science (We're smart-- you're not).

THERE y'go!

From Physics Today Online

There is an interesting touch of candor in his remarks concerning antireligious prejudice:

Nowhere does a physicist’s religious or philosophical preferences (one should really say prejudices) show up more clearly than in his approach to cosmology. In the early days of the so-called steady-state theory of the universe, everyone knew (though no one ever said so in print) that the model was motivated by antireligious sentiment.

Finally!

A fellow from NEITHER side that admits there are things that he doesn't know!

An honest man, I think!

I salute you!

The Onion did request Free Republic not to reprint articles from their site.

It's their loss, I used to go to that site everytime someone posted something from it. Now I hardly ever go there.
