I work at a law firm, and I will simply never understand why people think they can do without them at the dark hour.

I think in a lot of cases (like Civil Forfeiture and the fact that local police departments are now armed like small militarized nations), there's been a steady erosion in checks against the power of police officers. As far as the persecution of non-white people, that's always been true, we're just kinda sorta paying…

"Science-y folks" laugh at people of faith who say things like "a lot of science involves faith...faith in the fact that you're correct." That's a complete misunderstanding of how proper science works. Science never involves a "faith" that you're correct. It involves testing those ideas you think are correct to…

And yet Schilling, who was being far more aggressive (and wrong) in his tweets, and who has continued to bring up controversial things he knows nothing about, has not been told to stop. ESPN has absolutely taken a side here.

The difference is that fundamental things in science like the existence of the electron etc. were predicted mathematically and then observed soon after. Scientists will be the first ones to admit that something uncertain like string theory is still very difficult to experiment with and test, and shouldn't be taken as…

The scientific method and thinking that evolution is real do not require faith. Period. Your beliefs are based on ancient myths and do require having faith in something for which there is no demonstrative evidence. Evolution has reams of evidence.

Nope you are completely wrong. Show me any evidence that the universe was created and I will consider it.But no one has provided one jot of evidence while the evidence of evolution is all around us.

No, evolution is a testable hypothesis which has been repeatedly validated through thousands of experiments. Creationism predicts nothing, nor is it testable.

So at ESPN you are allowed to express your racist, homophobic, misogynistic, and anti-science beliefs, but presenting facts is a suspendable offense?

Truly fascinating. He keeps chiding others for their opinions on Ferguson because "they weren't there," and yet his single source for believing creationism over evolution is a thousands-year-old collection of historical fiction.

You don't know what faith means if you believe that statement. Or the scientific method.

both evolution and creationism requires faith

Ya because the bible is so much more credible than Wikipedia

Defraud Rhode Island taxpayers out of millions? You get prime billing on ESPN.

Careful, your entitlement is showing...

Well, for starters, you can't eat dolphin instead of eating "another type of fish", because dolphins aren't fish; they're mammals.

Kinda like he said in that last sentence you quoted?

Didn't you know that not getting everything you want 100% of the time is a human rights violation that is just as bad as the Holocaust?*
