Permanent Tag: Science Rating: Good Hits: 440 Comments: 2 Potholer54: Epic Creationist Fails of Our Time Potholer54: Epic Creationist Fails of Our Time Another nominee for the coveted Golden Crocoduck braves the waters of science with the leaky boat of creationist ignorance. Note 1: In the video I show the Earth as it is today, and the location of the fossil Troodon and Oviraptor eggs in Montana and Mongolia. I described these as "opposite sides of the world." As a couple of viewers pointed out, the configuration of the continents was different in the cretaceous. However, the places where the different eggs were found are still what could be described as "opposite sides of the world." I should have used a globe as it was during the cretaceous, but couldn't find one.

Permanent Tag: Science Rating: Good Hits: 269 Comments: 0 Why Do People Laugh at Creationists? pt 36 Why Do People Laugh at Creationists? pt 36 Its funny, it really is, well to be honest hilarious. I really didn't think PCS was serious when he claimed 'Ive found a scientific discovery that has been sourced to the bible, and that proves its divinely inspired' or similar. The sad thing is you don't even need to think about it long to realize that hes full of crap. So his line one item for 'showing the bible to be true' is a fragment of a poem from psalms. A line that involves divinely revealed insight about 'the fish of the sea' and the 'paths of the sea'. Turns out the arguments weren't even his own anyway. They were copied, word for word off other creationist website. This is doubtless why he doesn't appear on camera. So 'he' claims that the discovery of the ocean currents was directly due to the Bible, and a guy called Maury read the Bible, and then went off to discovery them. Problem one of course is there are no citations to this outside creationist scribblings. Problem 2 is that according to Maury himself, the gulf stream was known about at least 200 years before he looked at the problem (face-palm). Problem 3, ocean currents have been known about since antiquity. Its one of the first thing you notice when you get out on the sea in a dead calm is that there are ocean currents. Indeed our word for ocean stems from the Greek, as they incorrectly believed the ocean to be a giant river called 'okeanos' (or similar). So yeah, his bold claim that I had no come back to this is kinda on the level of fractal wrongness. His second argument is also directly, word for word copied off of another creationist site. Kudos to GuineaPigDan for spotting this. http://www.youtube.com/user/GuineaPigDan There are no 'revealed' discoveries related to this passage in Leviticus, and with good reason. The ritual for cleaning wounds involves chopping up birds and burning them. This is also how the Bible describes to cure leprosy. Further the passage only states running water, not clean running water. Again, bible literalists will read more into it when they want to, and ignore things that are explicitly stated. Leviticus, for those who haven't read it is a blood bath of animal sacrifices and burning animal carcasses. Its really messed up stuff that wouldn't be out of place in a horror movie, or in the annals of the mentally disturbed. User: spam_vigilante Feb 13, 2011 3:02 PM


Headline Tag: Politics Rating: Ok Hits: 1422 Comments: 3 Symphony of Science: A Wave of Reason Symphony of Science: A Wave of Reason "A Wave of Reason" is the seventh installment in the Symphony of Science music video series. It is intended to promote scientific reasoning and skepticism in the face of growing amounts of pseudoscientific pursuits, such as Astrology and Homeopathy, and also to promote the scientific worldview as equally enlightening as religion. It features Carl Sagan, Bertrand Russell, Sam Harris, Michael Shermer, Lawrence Krauss, Carolyn Porco, Richard Dawkins, Richard Feynman, Phil Plait, and James Randi. More science music videos can be found at http://symphonyofscience.com. Enjoy! ~John john @ symphonyofscience.com Lyrics: Russell: When you are studying any matter Or considering any philosophy Ask yourself only: what are the facts, And what is the truth that the facts bear out Sagan: Science is more than a body of knowledge It's a way of thinking A way of skeptically interrogating the universe If we are not able to ask skeptical questions To be skeptical of those in authority Then we're up for grabs Shermer: In all of science we're looking for a balance between data and theory Harris: You don't have to delude yourself With Iron age fairy tales Porco: The same spiritual fulfillment That people find in religion Can be found in science By coming to know, if you will, the mind of God Krauss: The real world, as it actually is, Is not evil, it's remarkable And the way to understand the physical world is to use science Dawkins: There is a new wave of reason Sweeping across America, Britain, Europe, Australia South America, the Middle East and Africa There is a new wave of reason Where superstition had a firm hold Plait: Teach a man to reason And he'll think for a lifetime Sagan: Cosmology brings us face to face with the deepest mysteries With questions that were once treated only in religion and myth The desire to be connected with the cosmos Reflects a profound reality But we are connected; not in the trivial ways That Astrology promises, but in the deepest ways Feynman: I can't believe the special stories that have been made up About our relationship to the universe at large Look at what's out there; it isn't in proportion Russell: Never let yourself be diverted By what you wish to believe But look only and surely At what are the facts Randi: Enjoy the fantasy, the fun, the stories But make sure that there's a clear sharp line Drawn on the floor To do otherwise is to embrace madness Nov 22, 2010 3:19 PM
