Intelligent Design Jokes, common terms: Bush supports teaching ID alongside the theory of evolution, but ID is quackery, repackaged creationism, Bush's disdain for the scientific method, and a preference for faith over fact, but ... is it his ignorance also of philosophy and culture.  Kansas provides plenty of jokes about ID, and argue that evolution can't explain all facets of life and in particular, the microbiological world.  ... and they've come up with this notion of irreducible complexity, chance could not have created life ... there must be an 'intelligent designer'... buy they can't name 'him' or 'it'...no longer science.  They distance themselves from a 'Biblical designer' for obvious reasons, ... but if you really investigate the situation, the ranks of ID folk are a vast majority of evangelical Christian ministries....except for the top echelon... they are secular business people.  They hope we won't notice...funny thing, even hilarious, can't stop laughing, split a gut. humor beyond belief. see Ambivolog for more  and of course there's Venganza and the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster ... they have news, a pastafarian?, noodle, a pirates vs. global warming temperature chart, a pirate fish, fish emblem, a hell sucks poster, a 'touched by "His Noodly Appendage" new design, and of course the Gospel of the FSM, Amazon.com             more below

  • Well this can’t be good for a quarterly report. The Walt Disney Co., whose stock has been performing modestly over the past half decade, now has to figure out what to do about something they can’t exactly control: reports that everyone’s favorite mass murderer, Adolph Hitler, had a little hobby drawing Disney characters during World War II. That’s the claim by a Norwegian war museum after its director, William Hakvaag, found drawings of Bashful and Doc from 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, a copy of which Hitler owned, as well as one of Pinocchio, from the 1940 film, hidden in a painting Hakvaag bought at auction. Hitler fancied himself an artist, and even tried to make a living from it, before setting his sights on taking of the world and eradicating it of any non-Aryan blood. Which doesn’t confirm these drawings are legitimately his, but even the possibility presents some bad […]

 Roborant Darwin, ... 'The Descent of Man', and his voyage on the Beagle, he gathered data, ... he had to publish his findings, manuscript ... Alfred Russel Wallace came to the same conclusions,  then spent 23 years defending it.  He had to master many disciplines: biology, embryology, anatomy botany, paleontology, and geology.  no DNA ... yet.  He convinced Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker and Thomas Henry Huxley despite a jihad from every pulpit in England.  They didn't know that evolution would actually speed up in the 21st century.

The Intelligent Design Jokes topic is completely related to the manipulation of images and concepts by GOP, neocons,  Bush etc. A highly organized campaign to marginalized Darwin has been going on since the publication of Origin of the Species, 1859.  Its a tragedy and a joke ... a cruel joke.

go to The Fourteen Defining Components of Fascism
Dr. Lawrence Britt has examined the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes. Britt found 14 defining characteristics common to each: 1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays. 2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc. 3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc. 4. Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized. 5. Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution. 6. Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common. 7. Obsession with National Security - Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses. 8. Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions. 9. Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite. 10. Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed. 11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked. 12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment - Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations. 13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption - Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders. 14. Fraudulent Elections - Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.  Discovery Institute promotes   Chronicles of Narnia

  •  Google News:  Prosecutors Ask for 7-Year Term for Ex-Qwest CEO for Completing $52M in Illegal Stock Sales DENVER (AP) -- Prosecutors recommended Friday that former Qwest chief executive Joe Nacchio serve a maximum of seven years and three months in prison for completing $52 million in illegal stock sales when his telecommunications company was at financial risk. In a brief filed late Friday, government attorneys also recommended Nacchio serve three years probation and be fined a maximum of $19 million. "Any less severe sentence would fail to provide just punishment, to promote respect for the law, and to protect the public," prosecutor James Hearty wrote on behalf of the legal team. In a separate brief, defense attorney Herbert Stern asked U.S. District Judge Edward Nottingham to impose an unspecified lesser sentence which he said was warranted because of the effect a lengthy prison term would have on the health of two of Nacchio's family members. Stern said the situation was explained in detail in a sealed report from the U.S. Department of Probation that was submitted to the judge. Nacchio also could be required to forfeit millions under a civil forfeiture action filed after he was convicted. Prosecutors want Nottingham to require the one-time CEO give back $52 million of "ill-gotten gains" while defense attorneys argue it should be no more than $1.8 million. Nacchio, who resigned from Qwest Communications International Inc. under pressure in June 2002, is scheduled to be sentenced July 27 in U.S. District Court. He was charged with 42 counts of insider trading for $101 million worth of transactions between January and May 2001. The jury acquitted him on 23 counts, but concluded that his criminal action began after an April 2001 conference call when he failed to inform investors of the problems the company faced. Jurors convicted him on 19 counts for transactions during April and May of 2001. Nacchio remains free on bail pending the sentencing, and has said he will appeal the conviction. Each insider trading count carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison and a maximum $1 million fine but is adjusted under federal sentencing guidelines that take into account Nacchio's actions which either made the situation worse or better. Separately, Nacchio and several other one-time Qwest executives are still involved in a pending civil fraud lawsuit that accuses them of orchestrating a financial fraud that forced the Qwest to restate $2.2 billion in revenue.

  • The people who endorse Intelligent Design also endorse the following:
  • Interfaith Stewardship Alliance  Fundamentalist Christian right wing (Bush) view of environmental issues: "....scientific evidence better supports the view that climate change in the past 30 to 150 years, as well as what may be projected with reasonable confidence into the foreseeable future, has been and will be: 
    • well within the bounds of natural variability, in which Earth’s climate has warmed and cooled cyclically throughout its history; 
    • largely natural in origin; 
    • unlikely to be catastrophic to humanity or the rest of the biosphere; 
    • not susceptible of significant reduction by any actions we take; 
    • far from the most serious threat to humanity and the rest of our environment. Further, we believe: 
    • the costs of achieving even tiny mitigation of future temperatures through any policy of greenhouse gas emissions reductions would far outweigh the benefits, and 
    • the benefits of adaptation to whatever temperatures the future brings–warmer or cooler (and geologic history assures us that they will be both)–can outweigh the costs." and printscreen and pdf  (for the record)
  • The environment is a 'lefty' distraction to the evangelical right... it 'distracts' from their brainwashing.   Racism and discrimination are alive and well.  (see more from Sen. Larry Craig and his 'family values' from the bathroom stall at the airport) Before he was discovered tapping his feet in the men's bathroom at the airport, Senator Larry Craig was considered a pillar of the 'conservative' white male Christian community and was highly instrumental shaping the  'conservative' agenda.  Craig and people like him have put this country in the position it is in.  Larry Craig probably supports Uncommon Descent and their idea of a joke ... its pretty funny really ... evolutionism.

  • In 2002, 2004 and 2006 ... nearly 80% of evangelical Christians voted for Bush, while 95% of African-Americans refused to vote for Bush... Do the math.  Bush could not have launched the Iraq War without the support of the evangelical Christian right and is leading this country and the world into dangerous paths of which we are only now discovering.  
  • Karl Rove didn't 'make' them support Bush.  He knew he had a willing and able audience for his dirty tricks.  The sheep willingly followed him.  Period.

  • Sen. James Inhofe, global warming:  file   and  Sen. Inhofe also noted that the Congressional Budget Office had recently released a report titled "Trade-Offs in Allocating Allowances for CO2 Emissions" that found a carbon dioxide allocation scheme would disproportionately harm the poor. The Senator referred such a scheme as "Robin Hood" in reverse.  ...  Inhofe cited a quote from Barrett Duke, Vice President of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention, who cautioned that we should avoid global warming policies that "make the delivery of electricity to [undeveloped countries] more difficult, millions of people will be condemned to more hardship, more disease, shorter lives and more poverty."  and  The Senator then offered his own Biblical perspective regarding global warming, saying that we "should respect creation and be wise stewards, but we must be careful not to fall into the trap of secular environmentalists who believe man is an afterthought on this Earth." For good measure, he quoted Romans 1:25: "They gave up the truth about God for a lie, and they worshiped God's creation instead of God who will be praised forever. Amen." National Center  In other words, environmentalists and the care of the environment are a distraction from the evangelicals ability to 'control the message'  and more IRD BS.
  • CBO report 2005  In addressing climate change, researchers and policymakers face various sources of uncertainty. The potential stakes in making policy choices are high: although emissions restrictions could impose significant costs, many experts believe that, if left unchecked, emissions could ultimately lead to costly damages.    and Uncertainty in Analyzing Climate Change: Policy Implications, 2006 ... This uncertainty flies in the face of overwhelming evidence from scientists who say that global warming caused by human activity is a FACT.  It is the conservative religious influence on the Congress that is pushing the 'uncertainty' argument.   
  • Institute for Religion and Democracy, Global Warming skeptics list  file  and pic  But what is the evidence that mankind is responsible for our present warmth, and is that warmth necessarily a bad thing? Could the warmth have a natural explanation? And would a loving God give us an Earth that is so sensitive that our use of the fuels He has provided us could so easily alter the climate system? ... I hope this paper will help you to better understand, contrary to what you might have heard from various media outlets, that the scientific theory of manmade global warming is based upon faith as much as it is upon the scientific evidence.
