The Big Light

Dammit, I got no time for blog, but this is too good.

PZ Myers points to Fundies Say The Darndest Things! for some excellent rainy day humor. Outside of the ranting about how George Takei's coming out has ruined Star Trek, I laughed my ass off at this mix of poorly understood science and overlooking the obvious in the rush to arriving at a predetermined result:

One of the most basic laws in the universe is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This states that as time goes by, entropy in an environment will increase. Evolution argues differently against a law that is accepted EVERYWHERE BY EVERYONE. Evolution says that we started out simple, and over time became more complex. That just isn't possible: UNLESS there is a giant outside source of energy supplying the Earth with huge amounts of energy. If there were such a source, scientists would certainly know about it.

Yeah, exactly! Where would we have a huge source of energy outside the Earth...

...just pouring all that energy down ...

...on the planet...

...every day...

oh. yeah. Never mind.


I certainly hope that more than just scientists have some knowledge of this mysterious giant outside source of energy. Sheesh.
