The Dumbasses Guide To Knowledge. Swallowing the Camel. Friend of Reason. Pro-science. Science-Based Medicine. The Rogues Gallery. Sam, an SGU listener, brought this to our attention the other day (thank you, Sam.) A new podcast has hit the iTunes shelves. It is called Scripture on Creation. And of course, it is correctly categorized under the ‘Religion and Spirituality’ category, isn’t it? Nope. It is in iTunes ‘Science and Medicine’ category. Strange. Could this possibly be an actual podcast about science, and the title is just terribly misleading? “The Bible is not intended by God to be a science textbook, but everything it does say about the material world is accurate.
Browsing around their website for a few minutes, it does not take long to realize these are unapologetic creationists, featuring interviews with “doctors” from ‘Answers in Genesis’ and ‘The Discovery Institute’ , and promoting movies such as “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed”, which they “highly recommend” to their audience. I gave up long ago trying to figure out how Apple manages iTunes from both operational and customer relations standpoints.
