Exploring bleeding edge experiments, oddities, new and bizarre dicoveries, and fact-checking conspiracy theories since 2008. No question is out of bounds and no topic is too strange for a deep dive.
# science
Pundits and commentators are still perplexed by Ken Ham and his temple of ignorance, and keep setting out on a snipe hunt for a deep, complicated reason why he created it.

Creationists believe that the scientific conclusions about Ida the fossil are a death blow to evolution. In reality, they're just attacking the much ridiculed hype generated by its discoverer.
# oddities

# evolution
A new study confirms what science advocates have long suspected. Creationism in the classroom undermines the quality of student's education.
