@wandeljw,

I might as well get into Eugenie's style--
No they're not. So there! Put that in your pipe and smoke it Scottie.
Dinosaur is hardly an appropriate comparison. Especially for a renowned anthropologist. Dinosaurs have been extinct for 65 million years and 2 decades is almost like yesterday. I still wear clothes I was wearing 2 decades ago. Waste not want not is my motto rather than lay waste to the earth. When there's a predatory pecuniary emulation competition raging based on who can waste most the earth is obviously the last fling. No doubt with the NCSE doing its bit to keep up. What with ES jetting around the country making idiotic noises. (see my previous post on EC).
And what does she mean by "creation science"? That's a ridiculous expression. A paraconundoron. There's no such thing as "creation science". Scientifically speaking. The FSM makes more sense than that does. One might, under certain unusual conditions, imagine a monster spaghetti mass flying through the air. A select few husbands will have seen such a sight. I myself have seen a plate of ruined bacon and eggs, sausage and mushrooms heading my way through space. It's trajectory being subject to the usual gravitational forces which its creator had sought to overcome.
A paraconundoron is not even imaginable. It's way out the other side of FSMs.
Besides which, it is a nice metaphor for the human brain. The symbolic figurehead of that movement which worships the human brain and is only interested in studying it from the activities it gets up to.
And our western societies are not going to look at itsy-bitsy things like Edwards v. Aguillard when it comes to right or left at the crossroads. That such trivialities are of importance is just lawyers puffing up their status.
The NCSE is never going to be significant with Eugenie doing the up-fronting.
