I would also like to say to Councilman Ed Shadid, in response to his remarks that they will be judged later: Sir, according to God’s word, you have already been judged by the vote you cast. There was no need for this vote. If there is any group in this city or our nation that […]

Kern’s ‘huge book of quotes’
Mr. Grow referred to “quote mining” by creationists as if they are looking for snippets to prove their arguments against evolution theory. Sir, not only do I have a huge book of quotes, I have books written to explain what the snippets mean and why they are important in understanding the evolution vs. creation debate. […]

Not dead yet
I hope you were not suggesting that all these wonderful human beings are “zealots” who simply do not know the “truth.” I am sorry, sir, but you cannot speak for everyone. Unless you have had a class in which you sat down and were taught the scientific evidence that not only proves evolution to be […]

‘Evolution is dead’
I can remember the poor chicken flopping around on the ground after having lost its head. That gives us a vivid picture of how I see these latter days of evolution dominance being played out. Evolution is dead. It just hasn’t come to realize it yet as it flops around like that headless chicken. The […]

Challenge accepted
All we need is one example of an impossibility to prove Kern’s source is false. In Kern’s Bible, we read of the sun and moon standing still as related in Joshua. That means gravity ceased; the laws of physics were negated. Religion provides metaphors for an unschooled era; today’s science describes and measures reality. Kern’s […]

‘Conspiracy theory’
Steve Kern (Letters, “The Rev. Steve Kern disputes dino diets,” Aug. 17, Gazette) is a case in point. The “scientists” Kern listens to start with a conclusion — their dogma — and force the evidence to “fit” it. That some dinosaurs are obvious meat eaters makes some creationists go through mental gymnastics. They think of […]

Inexplicable nonsense
It was an unguarded moment, and I bluntly replied that no one in their right mind thought that. He continued by telling me that this was, in fact, true and that the entire student body would soon be crossing the street to the Baptist church to be presented with the proof. “No, we won’t,” I […]

Questioning the Kern clan
Clicking “partners” reveals that WorldNetDaily, an infamous advocate of the infantile, racist notion that President Obama was born in Kenya, is an RAFC partner. Since the Rev. Steve Kern and his wife, Rep. Sally Kern, are associated with RAFC and widely pontificate on issues that concern RAFC such as homosexuality and evolution, I think it […]

Design unintelligent
Let’s look at Lake Yellowstone and a diatom species, for an example: All over the world, a diatom known as S. niagara can be found. However, if one takes a close look at the sediments of Lake Yellowstone beginning about 14,000 years back, one can see S. niagarae transform into S. yellowstonensis within 4,000 years […]
