"Cdesign Proponentsists" (off site) 25 September 2008 "For years, 'intelligent design' (ID) proponents denied that ID is just a new label for creationism. However, it is now well-known that the first intelligent design 'textbook', Of Pandas and People, is just a revised version of a classic 'two-model' creationism vs. evolution book named Creation Biology." |

Evolution Sunday says dichotomy between faith and science is false (off site) Bob Allen, Associated Baptist Press, February 06, 2009 "While many Christians view evolution as a threat to religion, a growing number of churches view Charles Darwin’s 200th birthday and the 150th anniversary of his seminal work The Origin of Species as something to celebrate." |

Assembly of the cnidarian
camera-type eye from vertebrate-like components

Slime versus dinosaur
(off site) Carl Zimmer "In 2005, researchers made headlines when they reported that they had found intact blood vessels from a 68-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex. The discovery raised hopes that paleontologists could get their hands on the flesh and blood of vanished animals. This week, however, other scientists challenged the results, arguing that the dinosaur flesh was in fact just coatings of young bacteria." |

They Call Me Mister Zimmer
(off site) Carl Zimmer "Readers of this blog will have to indulge me from time to time so that I can respond to personal attacks from creationists. I write about science, and I strive to do so accurately. I also point out misinformation about science and explain why it’s wrong. So when someone claims I can’t admit a mistake when I make one, or that I suffer from an overactive imagination, I have to respond." |

Darwin, Linnaeus, and One Sleepy Guy
(off site) Carl Zimmer "Now, when we think about the magnificence of nature, the majesty of life that biologists seek to decipher, microbes may seem like minor stuff. What’s a bacterium next to a human being, or a blue whale, or a redwood? But if I’m successful today, you will leave here convinced that microbes are in fact a very big deal. They dominate the history of life, and dominate the planet right now. And they force us to rethink the ideas we’ve inherited from Linnaeus and Darwin." |

A Teacher on the Front Line as Faith and Science Clash
(off site) Daron Dean for The New York Times "David Campbell switched on the overhead projector and wrote 'Evolution' in the rectangle of light on the screen. He scanned the faces of the sophomores in his Biology I class. Many of them, he knew from years of teaching high school in this Jacksonville suburb, had been raised to take the biblical creation story as fact. His gaze rested for a moment on Bryce Haas, a football player who attended the 6 a.m. prayer meetings of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes in the school gymnasium." |

Origin of the
specious
(off site) AC Grayling "It is sometimes hard to know whether books that strike one as silly and irresponsible, like Dissent over Descent, the latest book from Steve Fuller, are the product of a desire to strike a pose and appear outrageous (the John Gray syndrome), or really do represent that cancer of the contemporary intellect, post-modernism." |

Evolutionists Flock To Darwin-Shaped Wall Stain
(off site) The Onion, September 5, 2008 "A steady stream of devoted evolutionists continued to gather in this small Tennessee town today to witness what many believe is an image of Charles Darwin—author of The Origin Of Species and founder of the modern evolutionary movement—made manifest on a concrete wall in downtown Dayton." |
