I have no idea how appropriate this is for HN but anti-science makes me really mad and so I upvoted it. I can't help but feel like this issues gets so little emphasis. I can't believe serious presidential candidates can admit they don't "believe" in evolution. Anti-science is absolutely rampant (and not just in the US, and not just by republicans) and the media, in general, is so ignorant of science that they simply make it worse.
Dawkins: Every time a fossil is found, you guys "Ah, now we've got two gaps where there was previously one". I mean, almost every fossil you find is an intermediete.
Wright: If that was true, the Smithsonian Institute Museum would be filled with these examples.
Dawkins: It is.
Indeed.

- davidw 17y ago> makes me really mad and so I upvoted it I find that that's a bad combination for sites like this. I mean, that kind of thing pisses me off too, but so do other political things. You end up with a site full of political/cultural angry-voted-up stuff (which we won't name).
