Hitchens and Fry vs. Ann Widdecombe on The Ten Commandments
Friday, February 12th, 2010I just don’t understand. What kind of person goes out and votes for Ann Widdecombe?
(That look Hitchens is giving her is priceless. “Woman, are you for real?”)

Expand Your Mind: Getting a Grasp on Consciousness
Friday, December 18th, 2009An interesting talk by Shulgin, Koch, Churchland, and Flatow at MIT World.
Flatow not only manages to mispronounce Koch’s name when he introduces him, he also mocks his (german) accent by saying “he will be back” after Koch leaves the stage. My sense of humor is impaired, so I don’t know what to make of that – but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Christopher Hitchens debates Jay Richards
Saturday, December 5th, 2009This is the first part of a long debate – go to youtube for the rest, I couldn’t be bothered.
Jay Richards is a bullshitter. It is clear that he willfully misinterprets and manipulates the relevant science and philosophy to fit his ill-conceived & misguided religious agenda.
I just can’t believe what these ID people get away with.
