Re: Mindbending attempts to reconcile science and creationis

I'm watching the Faith School Menace on 4oD and Dawkins getting flustered when he realises the content of the muslim school's science lessons is so beautiful.

DO YOU think Mitt Romney strapping a dog to a car makes him a bad man?

Re: The Civil War Within Skepticism

SORRY to be late to the party but since logging back in her I've seen so many references to skepchicks in so many (frequently bizarre) places/scenarios (the Pappa/rape thing I happened across only yesterday). Who are they, how did they end up being so influential/disruptive? I've also only ever seen...

Re: Jazz

ANYONE ELSE hear Matana Roberts' COIN COIN last year?

My favourite new jazz-jazz album of the last year, though it took me a long time to hear it because of the Canadian postal strike. But its a beautifully well-conceived suite.

LONDON MAYORAL FUN

Basically, I can't decide whether I hate Boris enough to actually vote for Ken or whether I hate Ken enough to vote for Boris.

I don't think there's any reason whatsoever bar wishful thinking to doubt the sincerity of Obama's faith. If you read his books the deception would seem almost pathological.
