Harun Yahya

I just stumbled across Harun Yahya, a self-proclaimed "prominent Turkish intellectual" who runs several anti-evolution websites. Needless to say, the sites are chock-full of lies, misinformation, misquotations and references to scripture. But what staggered me the most is how much the guy loves photos of himself. Check out his snazzy white suit and shades. And if those aren't enough, here's even more!!

According to Wikipedia, he's as slimy and nasty as he looks...

Creation Museum

An excellent article by Demonbaby about the Creation Museum in Kentucky:

Creation Museum Review

While you're on the site, check out an equally thought-provoking article about downloading music.

Here's another review, this time written from a Christian perspective. It has a very detailed description of the exhibit, but the verdict is not good:

Reconciling Christian claims about God, creation and humanity with the findings of Darwin and his successors is an important and daunting task, one that mainline theology has still not satisfactorily accomplished. [The creation museum] can hardly be faulted for attempting the task, though its effort is a spectacular failure.

Fossil Evidence for the Great Flood

The above image is taken from www.creationism.org, and used in an article in which all fossils are claimed to be evidence of creatures that died in the Great Flood. Yes, the same flood as in the story of Noah's Ark. But hang on a minute, this fossil is a fish, right? Something doesn't add up. I'm reminded of an Eddie Izzard skit about evil pilot-fish escaping God's wrath.
