What really struck me about that video was how reasonable the “aliens built the pyramids” argument sounds when you listen to it with an “open” mind (i.e., from a position of relative ignorance). I’ve always known enough about evolution to see creationist arguments for the nonsense that they are, but I honestly don’t know how the pyramids were built.

Sheds a little more light for me on how it is that people buy the IDist arguments…

Hmmm. Seems to me that a better strategy would be for the Disco Institute to use AI theory as a Trojan horse. It doesn’t have the religious overtones, so is more likely to be declared constitutional. Get it into the classroom first, and it’ll be easier to sneak other nonsense in.

On a more serious note, why does ET have a condom on his finger? Doesn’t he want to get infected?

The Fine Print

Some things to consider. I will not necessarily be responding to (or even reading) comments. I generally do not block comments unless they are off-topic, merely a soap-box for the individual, or clearly spam. I reserve the right to ban persistent offenders. Occasionally a comment will be held up for moderation because it triggers a filter; in particular comments with four or more links will be delayed. Do not resubmit the comment - it will be posted when I get an opportunity. Lastly, commenting get automatically shut down three weeks after the post first appears. Have fun!
