1. Ask Richard!

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

2. The Creation Museum: Prepare to believe

I'm about a 2 day trip away. I really want to go, but I don't want to pay. I'm in a real predicament.

and doodinthemood,

I remember reading that they got it mostly from private donations and the answers in genesis organization. The project cost $27 million. You think they could have helped the children in Africa with that kind of cash.

3. State Darwin museum

We get a creationist museum in the states, and Russia gets a Darwin museum?

That's not fair. That's not fair at all.

5. Better God-fearing than sneering

It seems equally futile to offer comparisons with the gods of ancient Greece; neither Harris nor anyone else will persuade a born-again Christian that their faith is as risible as a belief in Zeus... those who believe that Christ is the way, the truth and the life will simply reply that the author cannot understand the revelation of the gospel.


No one can convince me that Zeus is as risible as Christianity. Those that believe in Zeus will simply reply that the author cannot understand the Gods atop Mt. Olympus.

8. Comment #35242 by nowoo

nowoo, if they don't have souls then that allows us to enslave and slaughter their populations. If they do have souls, then they probably haven't heard the word of the baby Jesus. Which means we must send missionaries to save their souls and eventually enslave and slaughter their population.

Win-Win situation

9. Brian Lehrer interviews Richard Dawkins

Comment #34304 by plexer on April 23, 2007 at 7:03 pm

Prof. Dawkins was mistaken when he said that he believed that there were no laws against atheists holding public office.

The initial research was done by imrational from youtube.

I checked around and there are more than he quotes in his film. Just a couple laws here stating that atheists cannot hold public office.

Arkansas constitution: article 19 section 1
Maryland bill or rights: declaration of rights article 37
Pennsylvania declaration of rights: article 1 section 4
Tennessee bill of rights: article 9 section 2
North Carolina constitution: article 6 section 8
South Carolina constitution: article 4 section 2
Texas bill of rights: section 4

I don't know if they are enforced, but they exist.
