Hey, it's music AND reason! What a great combination! Like chocolate and peanut butter... oh wait, peanut butter is the atheist's nightmare, AHH!

Creation Science 101... very good.

But who is this guy? Never heard of him, but good luck to him though.

"And he smote me!"

Awesome stuff. I think I'll buy his albums to let him know he's doing a great thing. He deserves our support.

New article by Chris Hedges:

Creation "Science" Is the Christian Right's Trojan Horse Against Reason

http://www.alternet.org/rights/49811/

"They seek the imprint of science and scholarship to legitimize myth. This is a characteristic they share with all modern totalitarian movements, which co-opt the disciplines of law, science, medicine and scholarship to give a modern veneer to their primitive and superstitious belief systems, systems that allow the rulers to dictate reality and truth. The "paraprofessional" organizations formed by the Christian right, organizations of teachers, journalists, doctors, lawyers and scientists, mimic the activities of real professional groups. They seek to challenge the legitimacy and the power of the traditional organizations. The duplication of the structures and methods employed by the non-totalitarian world, the use of pseudo-science to dress up fantasy, is slowly undermining our legitimate scientific and educational institutions. It is destroying the foundations of our open society. It is ushering us into a world where lies are true."

Judging by the video comments on YouTube, and in spite of recent books like Dr. Dawkins' to enlighten the world, it appears the human race is still on track in its dumbing down toward a universal mind meltdown driven by religion.

I lost count of the "evolution is false because it's only a theory" bullshit comments there. It really is quite alarming to say the least.

Most of his videos has something in the range of 20,000 - 40,000 views. "Creation Science 101" has over half a million. That probably says something about ... something.

Perhaps this line should not be included for Youtube videos, given the level of discourse typically seen there...

torgosPizza, i agree with you:

It is superb. The second reason to love America; first one is Bruce Springsteen :). I have a question: what is the significance of "101"?

Quotes of Note:

"For the kinds of small animals we are talking about, we can assume one generation per year, so it seems that it would take less than half a million years to evolve a good camera eye."

Richard Dawkins

"Flowers and elephants are 'for' the same thing as everything else in the living kingdoms, for spreading Duplicate Me programs written in DNA language. Flowers are for spreading copies of instructions for making more flowers. Elephants are for spreading copies of instructions for making more elephants."

Richard Dawkins

"The invisible and the non-existent look very much alike."

Delos B. McKown

"Religious people split into three main groups when faced with science. I shall label them the "know-nothings", the "know-alls", and the "no-contests""

Richard Dawkins

"To enslave a man, then dope him to make him content! Do you call THAT a solace? . . . The honest fact is that the greatest hindrance to the progress of the Negro is that same dope that was shot into him during slavery. . . . The slogan of the Negro devotee is: Take the world but give me Jesus, and the white man strikes an eager bargain with him. . . . Another fact — there are far too many Negro preachers. Religion is the most fruitful medium for exploiting this already exploited group. As I said, the majority of the sharpers, who among the whites would go into other fields, go, in this case, to the ministry."

Joel Augustus Rogers
