Talk about lacking Intelligent design...

President George W. Bush weighed in on "Evolution vs. Intelligent Design" last week:

bush reignites evolution debate

This has all the earmarks of someone saying "I'm not smart enough to figure out how this structure could evolve, therefore there must have been a designer" which to me means that Bush puts evolution in the same category as the plastic tip on the end of shoelaces. He doesn't know how it got there so it must be "gremlin's and spooky magic".

In response, I really enjoyed this article: Bush's Science Policy Lacks Intelligent Design

Which supports an article in last month's National Geographic magazine which was fascinating: China's Treasure Fleet I highly recommend it.

Who says reading blogs isn't informational? :-)
