The Science of Spoon-Bending

Thank the Lord (irony intended) that there are still reasonable, rational, people out there who understand the distinction between science and religion, church and state. Over 70,000 Australian scientists (who knew there were THAT many scientists in Australia?!) signed their name to a letter indicating that Intelligent Design "fails to qualify on every count as a scientific theory."

My favorite quote: "To allow the theory to be taught as science would make a mockery of Australian science teaching and throw open the door of science classes to similarly unscientific world views such as astrology, spoon-bending, flat-earth cosmology or alien abductions"

How strict are Oz's immigration laws these days? They've got scientists with humor there!! Go spoon-bending!!

What is unscientific is dismissing a phenomena without examining the evidence for it.
