From Sam Brownback's op-ed in the NYT:

While no stone should be left unturned in seeking to discover the nature of man’s origins, we can say with conviction that we know with certainty at least part of the outcome. Man was not an accident and reflects an image and likeness unique in the created order. Those aspects of evolutionary theory compatible with this truth are a welcome addition to human knowledge. Aspects of these theories that undermine this truth, however, should be firmly rejected as an atheistic theology posing as science.

I don't have a problem with people who believe in God and believe that God has a purpose for us, however, I do have a problem with Mr. Brownback asserting that we know man was not an accident. A big problem. In fact, Mr. Brownback made me growl at my computer monitor. After I have my coffee, I may roar.

I love the book cover, Allyson! It is printed and posted on my office door in my library.

Our boss brought in brownies which are amazing. But it makes me wonder what she wants from us.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

So did I! it was fun. And even more fun, I was telling a coworker about it and she hadn't heard of it ... but when I said it was made by the people who did "Shaun of the Dead" she immediately decided to go see it.

of course, this is the same person who called "Lord of War" (Nicholas Cage as an arms dealer) a chick flick ....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Work internet is still down. Bah. And I'm on hold with Comcast, so napping is out....
