Worthy cause of the day: “RUSH TO JUDGMENT”.
Relevant to Divine Misconceptions:
- The Richard Williamson scandal continues. Both the Italian bishops’ conference and the Vatican have denounced the Holocaust-denying views of Williamson (see “Italy bishops denounce Holocaust denier” and “Vatican: Comments by Holocaust denier unacceptable”). No word on Pope Benedict XVI re-excommunicating Williamson yet. Meanwhile, Williamson himself seems to be increasingly nutty, as evidenced by this bizarre review of The Sound of Music, which is not only pro-Nazi, but also makes some interesting leaps of logic. (Credit is due to J. L. Bell, who read about this in The Daily Dish.)
- “Tanzania witchdoctors flout ban”: The ban is on using organs from human albinos, procured by murdering people they were part of. Considering that magic only works in the form of psychological effects, this is an extremely high moral price to pay for a placebo. Shame on the witchdoctors, the murderers, and the clients of the witchdoctors!
- More self-promotion: 2009 Darwin Week in Charleston | February 08-15. I am on the panel on the 10th discussing Expelled. Bring your own rotten vegetables.
- “Doomsday Defense (1994)”

- Relevant to today’s quasi-holiday: “The Holocaust did not begin in the gas chambers - it began with words”
- “Vaccines and autism: yet another dead link”
