Bible-thumping dinosaurs and more!
OK, I'm stretching it...
I swiped this from a link to the website that was posted on endcreationism. The owner of the site argues against evolution and apparently has the "proof" to back it all up. Hee!

Gaining a better understanding of the feminist slant on vegetarianism and animal rights
I woke up today to one of those CBC "Out Front" user-made docu-blurbs.

Much of it is just plain ol' fun to read and consider ( Read more... ) -
Why do I feel as if this article is a fake?
The misinformation in it is nuts. Fainting on the first day of your period because of vegetarianism? Three pieces of animal flesh turning someone's health completely around in less than a week? From what I've read and heard, if someone's gone a number of years without eating animal products, the only sure thing to happen if that person goes ( Read more... ) -

A couple of Stanford profs have a radio show that you can hear live online every week. There are archived shows, as well. I haven't sampled them yet myself since I don't run Real Player on my computer.
