FUDD

Posted on June 28, 2007 by hoon

Alright, I waded through Behe’s Edge of Evolution. It provides no positive argument. At all. Counting here its argument from incredulity just for what it is: what biologists can’t readily explain to Behe’s satisfaction must allow for some other explanation. … Continue reading →

Posted on June 22, 2007 by hoon

Usually a politically oriented posting is posted to Diggeracity, where I rant and rave to blow off steam. However, I offer a clipping of Dana Perrino, Deputy White House Press Secretary, addressing questions and follow-ups about this week’s odd assertion … Continue reading →

WITHOUT A TRACE

Posted on June 17, 2007 by hoon

I’ve been trudging through the commentaries on Behe and his new book. This is exhausting. I know how it ends. In a nutshell, Behe has accepted all but the remarkable causal supposition of modern evolutionary explanation. This rejected supposition in … Continue reading →

THE FAT GUY SANG

Posted on June 11, 2007 by hoon

…and it is over; on TV at least. There’s nothing Sopranos fans can do about the ending now. The end is past near. Auteur and honcho David Chase surprised all of his show’s viewers, whether they were low, middle, or … Continue reading →

WITNESS

Posted on June 3, 2007 by hoon

This is a first sports post. …gotta let it out, it being elation. I’m first a baseball fan but basketball is my favorite sport to watch on the tv. Last night the Cavs brought a Cleveland team to a pro … Continue reading →

PINCH ME, PLEASE PINCH KEN HAM

Posted on June 1, 2007 by hoon
