Wow just
a year ago after the election I was so depressed, convinced that the days of a theocracy were nearly upon us. Well yesterday's election shows there still are some reasonable folks out there voting.
At least in Dover Pennsylvania. They replaced eight school board members yesterday with eight new ones whose platform was, "In schools we should teach our kids science. duh."
As great as this was, there is no call for a huge celebration, since in other news yesterday a whole state just up and decided to
redefine the meaning of science. Out in the heartland science is no longer limited to just using natural explanations to explain phenomena. In Kansas they just weren't too hot on a definition that excluded their fairy tales. So in honor of Kansas I have decided to redefine "religion" here in Washington state. Religion must now be limited to only using natural explanations to explain phenomena. Sorry theists, but as you have declared that anything in the dictionary is now fair game and are so interested in our public schools, we will just have to keep a closer eye on what you are up to in your churches as well.

this great blog from a zoology professor at ASU. In his archives you can find all sorts of funny comics like the one above.
