Where are you getting that PhD from? I’ll make sure my start-up clients avoid hiring anyone from that school.

Obviously, the ability to make money has nothing to do with the ability to understand science.

Anyway, the 2008 Republican Platform on human embryonic stem cells is to ban all research including privately funded research. Unfortunately, they still haven’t addressed the issue of throwing IVF embryos in the trash after the families are done. Odd, isn’t it.

PS The creationists abandoned the eye argument around 10 years ago (sort of like how they avoid talking about our vestigal tailbone). Stay on the agenda, it’s about intelligent design as a whole–avoid using actual body parts as creationism examples because science does advance (which sort of explains the 2 billion to 4 billion difference–better science). Seriously, with all these advances in the world of chip design/manufacture, you can’t comprehend advances in the life sciences (like PCR, RNAi)? Don’t be a tool….

Sounds like you went to Monica Goodling’s bottom tier law school.

I wish for a DOJ that doesn’t premise its hiring on whether you contributed money to Greenpeace or Habitat for Humanity.

For an administration that didn’t use John Yoo’s memo to justify torture.

But I guess in your “legal” world that’s all OK.

Guess you forgot that “under God” in our pledge of allegiance was a 20th century construct…..

The irony of a governor who is against sex education having a pregnant unwed daughter is just slightly “rich”.

Guess that theory of “don’t tell kids about sex and they won’t have it” is still as unsupported as ever.

I saw a recent Church sign (in Sulphur Springs, TX) that stated the following:

Reason is the Greatest Enemy of Faith

I think that’s utterly wrong. Reason isn’t the enemy of faith. It’s not an “either or” situation. However, for a church to espouse it as such is a danger to society. Query: Why is it OK for conservatives to claim to protect racist speech as protected by our Bill of Rights and then accept censorship of our NIH and NASA scientists by politicos? That’s what has confused me the past 8 years.

Allan, the criticisms of cooprider are legitimate. He’s the one ranting against science for being incorrect (sort of like those folks that believed that the world was flat or the sun revolved around the earth). There are plenty of folks here that are spiritual but are not dogmatic in their beliefs.

Have you been to the creationism museum in Tennessee? Have your friends at the NIH and NASA complain to you about being muzzled by this particular administration? It’s the overt anti-science element of this society that you should be criticizing. You shouldn’t be criticizing those of us who actually study and publish for being baffled by the constant harping by those with no knowledge of how scientific theory is taught and accepted in our graduate schools.

And if that’s construed as “elitism” then it begs the question what’s the point of becoming an expert in something if everyone’s “opinion” carries the same weight….
