UK party leader hires Brian Eno as youth adviser

If you want to hire an old fart for the position, Johnny Lydon (Rotten) would have been a better choice. Not that I don't think that Eno isn't the shiznit, Lydon would just be a better choice.
And yes Rollins is a douche, but thats probably what we deserve in the US. And if it will keep him from recording any more Rollins Band records I'm all for it. Jello Biafra is also a total douche anymore but it would be better to get him than someone like Dave Matthews.

"Long live the Sciencism thought police!!
They are alive and well and posting on boingboing.
So I guess when someone asks just to be heard, they are craming their ideas down everyone elses throats, but when we are only given one theory of origins, that is not craming ideas down peoples throats."
Are you familiar with this issue at all? Creationists are not just asking to be heard, they are infiltrating school boards and trying to sneak in fairy tales in the place of science. Go look at aLearnerRather's links in post 21. Or read it from there own mouths

This is not an honest scientific debate, it's people with a known agenda trying to sneak religion into the classroom. How many times do Behe and Johnson have to be shot down for sloppy science before we can be done with this issue.
"The "current one" and I use that phrase very loosely, has been evolving for all of those 100 years, and is far from being agreed upon among the believers(of sciencism)."
I don't really think you have a point here, but I'll agree with you here. It's all still science then teach it in science classes. But once it comes to magical sky daddys creating everything it belongs in a religion class, and if it's not a world religion class it belongs in a private school.
A really good way to promote ignorance is whenever we are not sure of something completely is to just say "God did it." That solves everything doesn't it, why look any further. Yes, science gets thing wrong, but this is the important part, when it does get things wrong it corrects itself and moves on. It doesn't resort to a "wedge strategy" to try to prove it's point. I rather have my kids learn science that is later proven wrong then to shut down their minds and say "God did it you don't need to worry about it." If there is a better theory of how we came into existence, future scientists are not going to have the skill sets to find it if they are just told that "God did it." But if evolution is wrong, and there is a better theory, it's not going to come out of the Discovery Institute trying to make science conform to the Bibles dogma.
"But my point is, if it is truly unimpeachable, then it has nothing to fear from a bunch of crackpot fundies."
You can't be serious here, this has to be flamebait.

Unless they have SEEN you conceal the merchandise, they should not be attempting to detain you.
But yea like some of the other people have said, in order for everyone to just have a nice day, we should probably not whine and continue to let large corporations slowly erode our rights. I mean who is protecting the box stores from the little guy? (sarcasm)

The only way that cross wasn't intentional was if that was a really stoned, first year film student. Really, if you make a living shooting video, or producing advertising, YOU'RE GONNA KNOW HOW TO FRAME A F***ING SHOT. It's not really up for debate. If Huckabee is seriously saying anything else, he is accusing the advertising firm he hired of being complete idiots. Which makes him a complete idiot, or a f***ing liar.
But I do have to say I'm impressed, I would actually chose Romney over him if those were my only two choices. You have to sink pretty low in my book to be a less acceptable presidential candidate then someone who wears magic underwear.
