AiG honesty, at last

Creationists don't lie all the time, and sometimes the truth can slip out. For instance, Ken Ham has recently admitted that they engage in fabrication, and have even shown pictures illustrating how good they are at fabricating "biblical truths."

(Yes, this is an example of quote mining.)

New Feature -- Chemistry in the Spotlight Just Ironing Things Out… Submitted by Joe Schwarcz -- USA Science & Engineering Festival Nifty Fifty Speaker

Some of you may find this surprising, but I don’t mind ironing.  Unlike giving a lecture, writing a column or appearing on TV or radio, you get immediate gratification.  You see the results of your efforts.  Wrinkles that were there before are gone.  I suspect, however, that n

Can we get rid of this stupid phrase?

Is there a more meaningless cliche than "fabric of our nation"? I can't think of one. It's a perfect little piece of empty rhetoric, repeated ad nauseum without anyone bothering to ask what on earth it means.

BioCouture

I don't usually like to post links from BoingBoing because I imagine everyone has already seen this already, but as it is about some of my favorite things (synthetic biology, biomaterials, and fashion) I couldn't resist!

Fractals on Fabric

Finally, after months of painting, planning, organizing, and flinging, my home is starting to look like a home. I’m down to the little finishing touches: trim and accessories, windows and doors.

Another way to twist the minds of children. What a fairytale. I checked out the walk through, it's disturbing. This will cause scientists to have violent seizures or resort vanalism and, if it wasn't so pathetic, loud fits of laughter.

I'm looking forward to seeing the "Valley of Corruption", which, I've been told, is located somewhere on the Whore of Babylon's person.

From the linked article:

An area we have almost completed is the Wonders of Creation room; the sails have been hung to create the false ceiling, the stylish light box display panels have been installed as well as several other scenic elements. This room will surely (as the name implies) show the Wonders of God's Creation.

Umm, a FALSE ceiling to show the Wonders of God's Creation. Indeed Ken Ham has started confessing his sins. Could be that he is becoming a Christian?

I LOVE playing the Quite Mine Game! The following is word-for-word taken from just 2 paragraphs of Ken Hamm's words.
(Well, creationistic word-for-word quote style.)

"Oh my" "An area we have almost completed is the Wonders of Creation hung to create the false elements. This room will surely (as the name implies) show God's Valley of Corruption on an almost daily basis."

added note: "And don't call me Shirley!"

Yes, this is an example of quote mining.

As an expert I can say without fear of contradiction that it wasn't quote mining ... you obviously just wandered too near the Babylon/Confusion exhibit.

The Confusion Exhibit.

Finally, something I can agree with!
