    Quote for Today from Paul Feyerabend

    Feyerabend’s book, “Against Method” stands as a critical look at science, and how we “know.”  As part of the domain “philosophy of Science” he stands as one of the interesting challengers to what we think we know, categorized often as...

    What is wrong with this picture?

    A brief respite from the Jesus Floor… Faithful readers may remember my post about the Russian News Agency incorrectly referring to the “Dark Side of the Moon.” (No, not the music…)  Well, here is another apparently common mis-perception.  I say...

    Getting Lunar Science Wrong

    It’s not every day that I get to write a blog that essentially “corrects” a story from the Russian News and Information Agency, but today, I thought I would quickly write a note about what is perhaps a simple, yet...

    Dawkins, God, and the presumption of Assumptions
