Slowly, mainstream pop science is beginning to catch up with evolutionary theory. This time, it’s a Vanity Fair article entitled “Why Women Aren’t Funny.”
Gasp! Something based in scientific study suggesting the genders aren’t equal?! How dare they!
Of course, most of us are blind to the inequalities of the genders because said inequalities […]
British scientists are going to be allowed to research diseases using “human-animal” embryos, leading many to wonder what kind of path British medicine is going down: the way of Dr. Jonas Salk or Dr. Frankenstein.
They’re called “admixed” embryos, and feature putting human cell nuclei into animal eggs. The theoretical embryos wouldn’t be allowed […]
It’s been my longstanding opinion that people aren’t born gay, at least not in the sense that most people would understand it. As far as I see it, though, when I debate this topic with other people, there are three possibilities in the world of “gay formation”:
1. Gay people are born like the rest of […]
I’ve said it before: men are be an endangered species. It looks like scientists have been able to synthetically (i.e., not naturally) create “immature” sperm (remember, according to HealthBolt, that’s not the only kind of sperm) from bone marrow.
It’s just a small step against men right now. The real question, of course, is: […]
This just in: it’s impossible for men to be sexist. See point 10.
Evolutionary psychology rules. Within books like “The Mating Mind” or “The Red Queen,” you can find out exactly why people do the crazy things they do, and even the answers to weirder questions like ‘why are there TWO genders, not […]
The missing link has been found! Dr. Alan Grant from Jurassic Park was right! Okay, I’m getting ahead of myself, but it looks like China found the remains of a surprisingly bird-ish dinosaur. Scientists fought off dozens of Chinese sous chefs who quickly tried to serve it with soy sauce.
Eight meters (26 ft) long and […]
For my married readers:
Scientific research into the long debated question of whether the toilet seat should be up or down suggests that the social norm of leaving it down is actually inefficient.
An Indian economist, the latest scholar to weigh in on the issue, supports these findings but has devised a series of mathematic formulas to […]
One of the main beefs creationists/non-evolutionists have with the Theory of Evolution is that there is supposedly a lack of fossil evidence to support it: we have ape bones, human bones, so where are all the ape-man bones?
Bam!
Non-evolutionists probably aren’t aware of Runaway Theory, which suggests that evolution as a process (like ape brain to […]
