NCSE Reports came the other day, a bit late.
Some interesting topics:
Letter to the editor from a Creationist went like this:
When you die you will go to Hell and oblivion, you're
intolerant and will be punished, you idiots who refuse
salvation Dr. Morris offers, praise Jesus. We'll watch
your agony for eternity as you suffer endless torture
and enjoy it in the rapture while you suffer pain
without end.

(Editor's comment) No one loves an editor, I guess.
There's an interesting article that updates the Patterson /
Sutherland fiasco that has arisen here recently.
Discussion on Asimov's "Nightfall", concerning the relationship
between religion and science. (This is one of his stories published
in 1941).
Report on a Texas symposium by K. John Morrow of the Dept.
of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Texas Tech. Philip
Johnson was at the symposium, and there are some useful
insights into his thinking.
