In Kansas, the site of the famed Scopes trial of 1925 ...

I didn't know that Kansas had annexed Tennessee!! And he is majoring in international affairs? Bill Clinton would be PROUD!

Not quite, but we should probably do a better job of teaching geography, judging by your "article."

The New York Times story on Flying Spaghetti Monsterism was a classic, and truly funny. The picture illustrating it, Michaelangelo's creation of Adam, only instead of God there was a giant wad of spaghetti with meatballs for eyes, was truly amazing. I'm hoping everyone can keep their sense of humor here, because regardless of one's religious beliefs, this guy is really funny.

I wish your headline was true but unfortunately it is not. Bill Clinton went to my Alma Mater, Georgetown University. He was a student at the School of Foreign Service. He was a student there when it was still a mens-only University.

Behold the visage of the omnipotent Flying Spaghetti Monster

It's pathetic how the evolution cultists are now pimping unfunny NYT articles on FR of all places.

It's bad enough to have the Buchanan Brigadiers pimping NYT Krugman economics in the first place.

[TexasGreg]

May I suggest the author of the article take up a minor in History and Geography?

Beavis: New York Times tweaked those Christian Creationists! he he he.

Butthead: Let's make it, like, REALLY REALLY funny and put a Koran in one of the spaghetti monster's tentacles! How about that one, guys!!!...Guys?.......Guys?

There is also a game.

Let us also not forget the effect of Pirates on global warming,

the story of creation, ,

the last supper, ,

the Kansas museum of science, ,

or the guy's page itself.

I don't know if I should laugh or be offended...but I see his point.

There's as much POSITIVE evidence for ID as there is for the FSM. If there is more POSITIVE evidence for ID, please present it. I have yet to see any.

POSITIVE evidence does not include taking swipes at non-existent problems with evolution. The ID position does not win by default.

Now, I'll just wait here while you dig some up.

[adam_az]

Junior,

I hope you are not holding your Holy Marinara Scented Breath.

After all, the FSM gave His Meatballs for your sins!

[bahblahbah]

The problem with ID vs FSM is that they aren't conflicting theories.

Obviously you haven't been touched by his noodly appendage. FSM is more complete in it's tenants than ID.

FSM is more complete in it's tenants than ID.

Really? Is the rent that much more affordable, genius?

"Positive evidence" is an undefined term and has little to do with my point.

I'll spell that point out simply for you: it is pathetic that anyone on FR would cite the NYT party line as a source for an argument.

"Positive evidence" is an undefined term and has little to do with my point.

No it isn't. It means evidence to SUPPORT your position.

I'll spell that point out simply for you: it is pathetic that anyone on FR would cite the NYT party line as a source for an argument.

They may be liberal, but that doesn't mean they are automatically wrong.

Now, how about the evidence in SUPPORT of ID?

...very carefully saying "both sides ought to be properly taught ... I think that part of the education is to expose people to different schools of thought."

I applaud Mr. Bush's general sentiment on this issue, however hypocritical it might be (I'd like to see him apply the same logic to sex education, for example, but that's another column for another day)

The diversity/perversity equation....Gee, it's almost the author of this article is a--gasp!--LIB! I thought they were creationists. That's what our evolutionist friends keep saying.
