The Bible: not so very big

Pharyngula, always worth a read, has posted an article, 'The proper reverence due those who have gone before'. It stimulates the grey matter, on the subject of Biblical creationism and science, by comparing the part of history covered by the Bible, with the eons of our species' existence. I found it at The Panda's Thumb.

While we're at it, here's a page on Project Steve, named for the late American palaeontologist Stephen Jay Gould. Project Steve is a humourous-but-serious campaign for intellectual freedom, again taking a swipe at Creationism.

And on a similar subject, from Evolving Thoughts, 'Hobbit Not a Pinhead', another one I found at The Panda's Thumb.
