A lot of you have probably already seen this, but for those who haven't, give it a read, it's brilliant.
Galileo was a man of science oppressed by the irrational and superstitious. Today, he is used by the irrational and superstitious who claim they are being oppressed by science - Mark Crislip

I've heard about the correspondence but never had a chance to read the letters for myself. The experiment itself was amazing and horribly tedious. I find Schlafly to be a rather distasteful person and fail to understand why someone who is "supposedly" educated would fall for such a trivial God-of-the-Gaps argument. Even if he disproved evolution, what would that mean? He simply disproved evolution, nothing more. The problem of having evidence to support a deity still remains to be collected.
These arguments are really beneath us given our current collective knowledge and cognitive abilities as a species. They really are. I shake my head in disbelief anyone would ever consider Convservapedia even remotely valid. Critical thinking alone would point out the inconsistencies and utter fraud that it is, never mind the contradictory scientific evidence.

Oh fuck no! One of Andy's boot lickers suggested that...
Dr. Paley Wrote:But with the physical specimens in the hands of Darwinists, who claim they will get around to the sequencing at some unspecifed future time, how can we trust that this data will be forthcoming and forthright? Thus, Prof. Lenski et al. should supply Conservapedia, as stewards, with samples of the preserved E. coli colonies so that the data can be accessible to unbiased researchers outside of the hegemony of the Darwinian academia, even if it won’t be put to immediate examination by Mr. Schlafly. This is simply about keeping tax-payer-funded scientists honest.
It apparently is the only way to "ensure" that the data will be "forthright".
Those dumbfuckers would kill themselves in a matter of days and be responsible for a newly mutated strain of unstopable E.coli spreading out and killing the masses.
Its like I cant say "DUMB FUCKS!!!" enough.
I LOVE his response..it cuts right to the BONE
Prof. Lenski Wrote:So, will we share the bacteria? Of course we will, with competent scientists. Now, if I was really mean, I might only share the ancestral strain, and let the scientists undertake the 20 years of our experiment. Or if I was only a little bit mean, maybe I’d also send the potentiated bacteria, and let the recipients then repeat the several years of incredibly pain-staking work that my superb doctoral student, Zachary Blount, performed to test some 40 trillion (40,000,000,000,000) cells, which generated 19 additional citrate-using mutants. But I’m a nice guy, at least when treated with some common courtesy, so if a competent scientist asks for them, I would even send a sample of the evolved E. coli that now grows vigorously on citrate
HOLY SHIT!!!! Oh man, that was the best science-gasm I have had in quite a long time.
I need to smoke a smoke now..that was satisfying!
LMFAO - Conservapedia's entry for "Peer Review"
http://www.conservapedia.com/Peer_review
Quote:Peer review in general refers to submitting scientific work to the scrutiny of other scientists, especially before making announcements to the general public. It has been found to be rooted in the Biblical tradition and is a proper Christian conduct.
LMFAO...
Quote:In a landmark paper, the process of peer review has been established by many scholars [2] as rooted in several Christian virtues, such as:
reflecting Christ
being honest
seeking wisdom
humbly submitting
showing Christian love
correcting error, and
being accountable
In accordance to this, several peer reviewed creationist journals such as Answers Research Journal, Creation Research Society Quarterly, Journal of Creation, Occasional Papers of the BSG, Proceedings of the National Creationist Institute, and Origins have been created despite the scorn and ridicule from liberal professors.

What a fucking asshole.
This....
is how xtian scumbags handled 'peer review' when they could get away with it....and would do so again if ever given the fucking chance.
