Buy Your Carbon Offsets Before The Price Goes Up!

December 6, 2008

I never cease to be amazed at how blind well meaning science minded people are to the unintended consequences of the policies they are encouraged to champion. The big push in Global Warming political circles is to demand legislation to create carbon offset taxes... [More...]

The Science vs. Religion Wars

October 29, 2008

I was reading an article on dinosaurs on one of my favorite science news web sites. In the reader’s comments section the usual war broke out between those who believe in God and those who believe in science. [More...]

It has formerly been held that there is a 98% similarity between humans and chimps based on DNA comparisons. Many believe that more recent advances in science demonstrate an even closer relationship between man and chimp. To them and others who cite this number my advice is to throw away their old high school biology books! [More...]
