Also Richard Colling

By Henry Neufeld

PZ Myers (yes, he who was expelled from Expelled!)* Pim van Meurs, has posted a couple of interesting cases on The Panda’s Thumb, and I want to make sure one name is also known: Dr. Richard Colling. I wrote about his situation in a number of posts, and also blogged through his book Random [...]

Expelled! and the Atheism-Evolution Connection

By Henry Neufeld

There is something I want to clarify from my previous post on the topic. Nobody has mentioned this to me, but it is a common enough error that I think I need to say something explicit.

I object both to the comparison of scientists supporting the theory of evolution to Nazis and the equation [...]

Upgraded to WordPress 2.5

By Henry Neufeld

I have upgraded the software for this blog to WordPress 2.5. I believe with the way I did it nobody should have noticed more than a momentary (less that 30 second) glitch. If there were any other problems I apologize.

Please let me know if any new difficulties emerge.

Context for Obama and Dr. Jeremiah Wright

By Henry Neufeld

I commented before on how we’re getting snippets out of context. Peter Kirk has done some looking regarding the God damn America comment. From another angle, my wife thinks Obama needs to say “enough!” and get on with the campaign.

Matheson on Howard van Till

By Henry Neufeld

He posted some good notes on a talk by van Till here. I have great respect for van Till as well, though I have only encountered him through reading.

Suppressed and Talking about it Everywhere

By Henry Neufeld

After reading this review of Expelled!, (HT: The Panda’s Thumb) based only on the 10 minute trailer, I decided to go view the various trailers for myself.

This is a movie that I have very little interest in seeing. Let me explain that. It’s not that I don’t want to hear about ID, but [...]

Prayer or Medicine

By Henry Neufeld

I was going to write about his, but Laura has already done a good job. Like my dad the doctor taught me, there’s no need to make it either/or; it’s both/and.

No More -MORE-

By Henry Neufeld

OK, the votes are in and I see some people who don’t like -MORE- tags, and nobody who really, really wants them, so I’m going to go with my inclinations and not use them at all. I used them so rarely, and so inconsistently that it was probably not going to work anyhow.

Thanks [...]

Church and Health Care: Remembering My Parents

By Henry Neufeld

Mark, at Pseudo-Polymath has written a post, The Christian Response to Healthcare and End of Life, which has what I consider the greatest quality for blog posts: It deserves to be discussed. My immediate problem is that there are simply too many things to discuss, and I’m a long winded person in any case.
