Christian zombies in the making

Be afraid, be very afraid. If this was footage from a Soviet young pioneer organisation camp in the 1980′ies, just imagine what Reagan would have said – something about an evil empire, I guess.

But no: It’s a trailer for the documentary Jesus Camp showing American children being brain washed by raving maniacs to be true soldiers of god.

Notice the camouflage paint and the pledge to lay down your life for Jesus. This is beyond sick…

Just another proof that religion of any kind can and will be exploited by fanatics. Kids: Stay clear of it. Source: www.kirstensanford.com

The Unicorn Museum is Online

Thanks to This Week in Science, the radio show that fights for reason and science, the Unicorn Museum is now online at www.unicornmuseum.org. The goal of the Unicorn Museum is to raise the money for a big billboard across the street from the home of absolute ignorance: The Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky. The billboard is to feature an ad for the (non-existing, really) Unicorn Museum. The hope is to make visitors to the Creation Museum think twice… I wonder if that’s gonna happen, but still: A worthy cause!

Kirsten SanfordNow that I got your attention: Go grab the This Week In Science podcast at Apple Music Store, it’s free. It’s hosted by Justin Jackson and Ph.d. Kirsten Sanford. Besides being smart Kirsten is one of the absolute lookers of the science community. As the podcast is still audio only, I here bring you a photo of Kirsten Sanford for you to look at when listening and getting smarter. Consider it a multimedia experience. Oh, read her blog too.

Shout outs to This Week In Science for fighting for a little less dumb world.
