blinded by science, sighted by faith!

The reDiscovery Institute fosters integration of science education with traditional Judeo-Christian principles of free market, limited government, morality, faith, property, obedience and anti-intellectualism.

Thanks for the pointer go to Malcolm Ray in the Other Place.

It's a shame that Dr. Loren Williams (http://web.chemistry.gatech.edu/~williams/) of Georgia Tech, to whom reDiscovery's domain is registered, doesn't seem to have any publications about it beyond the Web site itself. Those would no doubt be entertaining. It's also a shame that the Faith Evangelical Lutheran Seminary (http://www.faithseminary.edu/) doesn't link to reDiscovery even though they share a postal address with it. Nor does the Discovery Instutite (http://www.discovery.org/), which shares reDiscovery's phone number. Why can't these people be better organized about their affiliations? All the minions of Satan are in constant contact with each other, so Christians ought to be, too.

Okay, I swear I had no idea that people on my side of the political spectrum, commonly accused of anti-intellectualism, considered that a compliment.

I mean, it's one thing to be opposed to those tenured ivory-tower types who have no incentive to change their mind if/when they encounter criticism to their pronouncements, especially, when, well, let's face it, the loudest of them tend to be snobbish commies.

But, well, I thought it was a joke page. Who the hell favors active anti-intellectualism, and if they do, just what the hell do they think of when someone says "intellectual?" What broke, exactly? Did a bunch of loutish professors give intellectuals a bad name, or am I really in the same party as knuckle-draggers like the above? I like that even profound disagreement can exist within the big-tent party, even if I disagree with a ringleaders on some major principles. But jeez, these guys should form a pea-brain party if that's the way they're going to be.

Well, sorry, I still can't vote for your guy. But my guy should give these people a stern talking-to.

Gah, it's a joke site, people. Some of the subsidiary pages have the driest humor I've read all year. #8 of the 10 Questions is so dead perfect, it's like the essence of every argument with a well-read crackpot concentrated into a perfect jewel.
