Our Nearest Neighbour

Posted on August 26, 2016August 26, 2016

The Creationists vs the Meerkat (again)

Posted on August 10, 2016

Is it Worth it?

Posted on July 20, 2016July 20, 2016

https://pigeonchess.com/playing-with-pigeons/ I stumbled upon this site quite by accident, but I am impressed. It sums up nicely what it’s like to argue with creationists.

Faith Healing

This post started life as a comment to the Theology Archeology site, regarding TA’s latest post, this time about faith healing. I had hoped that they would be prepared to…

‘There are no such things as Neanderthals or Denisovans’

Posted on March 29, 2016

Apparently secular science (a bit of a misleading term in itself since science doesn’t conform to any belief structure) is lying to us. It dares to suggest that we evolved,…

I go on @Newsnight to talk about the @AvantiWestCoast debacle - an issue the mainstream media is neglecting.

*works insane hours to scrape enough money together for gas bills and a small holiday in the UK while the next PM calls you a lazy do-nothing cunt*

Government when you get there:

Good Morning Britain @GMB
