If you’ve seen me out and about lately and I’ve been less than my usual friendly self, it’s because I’m on a diet. I don’t mean to be grumpy and it’s nothing against you, but sometimes this diet, and the fact that I have to be on a diet at all, really bugs me.

From Munich to Baghdad: Cautions on historical analogies

By RONDA RICH

I was hoping this Easter turns out to be better than last year’s. To be honest, by the time the moment arrived to say grace over lunch, I had just about lost the Christian spirit.

Evolutionary faith: All we know came from nothing

I read Peter Duran’s letter regarding the notion of design and order in the universe without a Creator and noted his illustrations of how finite men used finite modern computers to determine the finite number of steps to reach the complexity of the human eye. Somehow this computer model is supposed to validate Darwinian theory.
