The War on Knowledge–It’s a Republican Thing 0

In my local rag, Daryl Lease offers you a chance to guess what response House Republicans have given to various statements about scientific topics. Here’s a sample:

During a discussion of global warming, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher mused:

A) “You know, some of this heat could be from the pit of hell.”

B) “If we do something about warming, are we imposing an unfair regulatory burden on suntan lotion companies?”

C) “We don’t know what those other [warming] cycles were caused by in the past. Could be dinosaur flatulence, you know, or who knows?”

Follow the link for the answer and for the rest of the quiz.

Remember, if God didn’t believe in evolution, he wouldn’t have given us Carbon-14 dating.

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
