    What does PZ Myers and his hatred for Expelled have to do with this picture?

    You don’t get why a scientific site is anti-intelligent design nonsense??? YOUR comments are out of place here, E. N; “sorry” (NOT) if racism and eugenics aren’t popular themes here. Maybe you could try Redstate or Little Green Footballs? They sound more up your alley.

    Jeez…
