http://gumbythecat.blogspot.com

A blog for the purpose of communicating my views on the intersection of science, religion and society. Written by a layman, for other laypeople with an interest in science. Recurring themes include the evolution vs. creation debate, and astronomy. I offer debating tips, and how to spot and refute logical fallacies (critical thinking). I also will mix in occasional humor and personal pieces.

    Sorry about the lack of posting lately, folks... I have been too busy to mess with the blog lately. This trend will continue indefinitely, unfortunately. I recently acquired a new customer for my painting business - a 200-unit townhouse complex. I ...

    This is one of the most disturbing videos I have ever seen. I guess this is a couple years old but it's the first time I've seen it. This is what fundamentalism can do to people, and what it can do to a fundamentalist's family. It's from the Fox show...

     It's alive... IT'S ALIIIIIVE!!! Abiogenesis, or the scientific study of  the origin of life, is a field in its infancy. Much research has been conducted, but many of the results are inconclusive and at best hypothetical. That is understan...
