- Malaria vaccine could save millions of children’s lives – It is still undergoing research in a larger trial and the longer term effectiveness of the vaccine is still being monitored.
- Does single-sex education breed sexism? – “A new report published in Science Magazine launches an attack on sex-segregated classrooms, which critics say undermine a core value of public education by reducing “boys’ and girls’ opportunities to work together in a supervised, purposeful environment.”
- David Barton and Ken Ham aren’t mistaken, they’re just lying – From Mark.
- Trehalose! – Aka, a molecule that reduces “senior body odor.” Oh, science.
Is there supposed to be a link for Trehalose? I wanna read about stinky people!
Whoops, now there is!
That reminds me. I need to change my socks.
Wow! I hope everyone here takes a look at the David Barton Ken Ham link.Great stuff.Scary stuff too,because it shows what I have been thinking for a while now:
Reality and facts no longer have the dominant role.Whomever presents the most compelling narrative for the most predominant cultural meme,controls the “truth”.
We have our work cut out for us.
Bags not being the scientist who analyses the aldehydes in the underware of seniors!
I loved the Barton/Ham article. It was solid, and very _right_. However, I cannot see how the author is not going to get sued.
These liars for Jesus have buckets of money, and dishonest lawyers that are willing to help them.
They don’t have to _win_ in court to win in court. They just have to bankrupt their opponent.
