“Plantinga has written a short, 5 page summary of his views on evolution and naturalism, and it’s lucid (for Plantinga) and goes straight to his main points. The workings of the man's mind sit there naked and exposed, and all the stripped gears and misaligned cogs and broken engines of his misperception are there for easy examination. Read it, and you'll wonder how a man so confused could have acquired such a high reputation; you might even think that philosophy has been Sokaled.” ThinkingMenMindHas BeensPhilosophyMightEasyWonderHe ManBrokenNakedReputationConfusedExposedEnginesExaminationGearsCogsMisperceptionSo Confused Author:PZ Myers

“We tilt our heads back and open wide. The snow drifts into our zombie mouths crawling with grease and curses and tobacco flakes and cavities and boyfriend/girlfriend juice, the stain of lies. For one moment we are not failed tests and broken condoms and cheating on essays; we are crayons and lunch boxes and swinging so high our sneakers punch holes in the clouds. For one breath everything feels better. Then it melts. The bus drivers rev their engines and the ice cloud shatters. Everyone shuffles forward. They don't know what just happened. They can't remember.” KnowsFeelsMomentsRememberLyingHappenedBrokenMouthsTestsBreathsCloudsBoxesWideHolesSnowIceCurseGirlfriendCheatingDriversBusLunchEnginesFeel BetterEssaysZombieJuiceTobaccoStainsCrawlingCondomSneakersGreaseCrayonFlakesTiltShuffleBus Driver Author:Laurie Halse Anderson
