What is Information – How Creationists Fail Again.

December 19, 2010

Why is it that creationists say contradictory things about information when it relates to DNA? I’ve heard creationists say for a while that DNA is information, and that information requires intelligence. The standard response of atheists is to deny that DNA is information, and I have to disagree with this.  I’ve also heard creationists say [...]

Creationist Science Fair

November 12, 2010

I’ve been spending some time on YouTube lately, seeing creationists be…well, creationists.  They make tons of claims about what is scientific and what isn’t, but I have yet to see a single creationist do an actual scientific experiment.  I was about to make a video about how creationists flat out can’t do science, but then [...]

It’s Official – My Biology Professor is a Creationist

November 3, 2010

Well, I rather suspected that my professor believed in some magic when it came to cosmology, but I didn’t suspect that he would drop the bombshell he dropped today. My professor is a rather old guy, in his mid 70′s, and he has a real hard time teaching the class.  He was supposed to retire [...]

Juan Williams – Are Anxiety and Bigotry the Same?

October 22, 2010

Anyone that’s been watching the news at all today has heard about NPR firing Juan Williams for comments he made while on Bill O’Reilly’s show last night.  The controversy seems to be that some people find his comments to be bigoted.  I must strongly disagree. For those who didn’t see the broadcast, I did the [...]

Evolution Wins

October 19, 2010

I have been interested to see what direction I should go with this blog.  I enjoy the philosophical thinking I have been doing, and the things I have learned about biology, astronomy, the bible, and many other things, and I will always do a bit of all of it, but between what I have recently [...]

Gays Open in the Military. Now What?

October 14, 2010

Well, it has finally been determined that gays should be allowed to be open in the military, which I think should have happened long ago in an orderly fashion, and it shouldn’t have gotten to this point where a court has to move things into high gear.  This whole ‘Don’t ask don’t tell’ policy was [...]

The God of Spinoza and Einstein

October 11, 2010

Well, I’ve heard forever about how Einstein claimed to believe in Spinoza’s god, and I have been told that Spinoza was a Pantheist, but I had never read Spinoza’s Ethics, nor had I had many discussions about them.  I am no longer ignorant in that fashion, and it is actually very interesting. Spinoza really put [...]

How do Intelligent People Believe in God?

October 1, 2010

Well, I have another story from my Philosophy class.  I know everyone is just sitting at the edge of their seats waiting for these, but it was interesting to see someone accept something that apparently goes against their belief system. My professor was going over Thomas Hobbes today.  The text we were going over was [...]

The Evolution of Death

September 24, 2010

I was asked today why organisms die if evolution is true.  I came up with what I feel is a very plausible answer, but since I am not a biologist, I am interested to know if someone knows if my ideas are congruent with the science. On its face, it seems like a species should [...]

Omnipotence and Time Paradoxes

September 23, 2010

I know it seems like I’m beating a dead dog here, since there are so many things wrong with omnipotence, but my mind follows down paths already visited and I discovered something that may have slipped the mind of people that have thought about this before.  Namely what it means to be all powerful when [...]
