Look it up. It’s right there.

Via Pharyngula comes a link to an educational Bible study page by Jay Pinkerton. Since everyone already knows the basic stuff, this concentrates on the intermediate/advanced topics most Sunday schools don’t have time to mention. And it’s illustrated too!

Appendices. Can live with them, can live without them.

Appendix has a job, and Uncommon Descent reminds us that is the last nail in evolution’s coffin. But this is just too funny. In the comments, Mats says: oh, by the way, needless to say that, if this paper is confirmed, then Darwinists will spin this around and say that this new found function of the [...]

Tubular H₂O and homeopathy

So, Austrian physicists have found an interesting property of water. Anyone care to guess how long until homeopaths try to use this research to justify the ‘memory of water’ effect? For a good overview of all the latest woo in the subject of the memory of water, this article at Homunculus is an excellent place to [...]

Marcus Brigstocke’s take on religion

I know I’m hopelessly — like a couple of months — late to post these things, so I won’t even try to come up with a clever excuse. Just treat them as my private bookmarks. [kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/UY-ZrwFwLQg" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

Who needs Occam when you have Jesus’ razor?

Halfway There provides a wonderful commentary on the Research Challenge Contest ‘winners’. My favourite quote from one of the papers: Many evolutionists are recognizing the problems with these theories that attempt to explain cells’ irreducible complexity. An infinitely intelligent Designer must have created these cells. That Creator and Designer is Jesus. Let me paraphrase. I don’t know how [...]

Peace, man

There’s a page discussing the Muslim greeting of “assalaamu alaykum” (peace be upon you). A snippet: There are certain situations under which it is preferable not to offer salaam. These include; when a person is relieving himself, when one is having marital relationship, when someone is sleeping or when in the bathroom. I can think of a [...]

One down, way too many to go

I forgot to mention this earlier: An evangelist who tried replicating Jesus’ miracle of walking on water has reportedly drowned off the western coast of Africa. Pastor Franck Kabele, 35, told his congregation he could repeat the biblical miracle, and he attempted it from a beach in Gabon’s capital of Libreville. “He told churchgoers he’d had a revelation [...]

Father, two sons, and the holy ghost

Doesn’t that sound like an average family? You know how at Christmas when Santa Claus is very busy, he has assistant Santas to help him. In the same way, Jesus will probably be rather busy during the Rapture, what with the sorting of people, so he might need some assistants. For the bloggers covering the event, [...]
