A Spork in the Drawer

Under Attack

Self-appointed Catholic Grand Inquisitor William Donohue is going after one of my favorites, PZ Myers.

Man the barricades if you can.

Right-winger extraordinaire Ben Stein - famous for Ferris Bueller's Day Off and a little-watched basic cable game show - recently made a "documentary" called Expelled (not going to provide link) which is really an extended hysterical screed against evolution. Various "real" scientists were interviewed for it under false pretenses including blog-favorite PZ Myers. Here's what Stein says about PZ:

Stein: When we just saw that man, I think it was Mr. [PZ] Myers, talking about how great scientists were, I was thinking to myself the last time any of my relatives saw scientists telling them what to do they were telling them to go to the showers to get gassed.

Wow.

Just wow.
