So, it turns out it is called “Counterknowledge”

You know, like in a diner. Counter knowledge. But it turns out that Counterknowledge is stuff like creationism, creation science, Scientology, alternative medicine, and so on.

Some Sick Atheist Demeans Kids … Photographic Evidence Destroyed
This is a repost of an item from my old blog. The Twin Cities Creation Science Fair association usually posts “random” photographs of the children’s exhibits on their web site after the fair is over. You can go and see them for the last few years. (Don’t look for a place to click on this post, I don’t provide it here.)But this year, something different happened, and if you go to the site where the photographs are supposed to be posted, you get this:Interesting, huh?Now, to really get the context of this, you may need to read at least the blog post and the last six or so comments in a conversation going on here about home schooling.I’m not going to even attempt to explain this. Comments? Suggestions? Information? Valium?

This is a repost of an item from my old blog.
The Twin Cities Home Schooling Creationist Science Fair at Har Mar Mall in Roseville, Minnesota happened last month.

Antievolution resolutions spreading through northern Florida
At least nine county school boards in northern Florida have adopted resolutions calling for the state board of education “to revise the new Sunshine State Standards for Science such that evolution is not presented as fact, but as one of several theories,” according to a January 23, 2008, report from Florida Citizens for Science. These resolutions represent a backlash to a draft set of new state science standards, which are presently undergoing revision in response to comments from the public. The state board of education is expected to consider the revised draft set of standards at its meeting on February 19, 2008.
