Yet More Magic Maori Creationism from Stuff

These are not good times for science. As perhaps no other time since the Enlightenment, science is under attack from the dark forces of ignorance and superstition. What makes it so much worse is that the attack is being led by ideological zealots from within. The only analogous situation was

Wishful Thinking Is Not Science

Even I’d like to believe otherwise, but

Not “Earth Like”, but Really Weird

For all the seemingly endless, breathless headlines about ‘Earth-like planet discovered!’, usually accompanied by fanciful ‘artist’s impressions’ (ie made-up pictures), the reality is a lot grimmer – and weirder. The sort of people who like to bandy about pseudo-scientific tosh like the so-called “Drake Equation” (which claims to estimate the

It’s not for nothing that my Second Law of the Media is, When an article claims, “science says…” or “new study shows…”, assume that it doesn’t until proven otherwise. Especially when the headline is making an extraordinary, attention-grabbing claim. And doubly especially when it’s from the field

A Lifetime of Being Wrong

In a truly rational world, Paul Ehrlich would be a punch-line, if remembered at all. Ehrlich’s entire career has been a masterclass in how to be wrong, consistently and about everything. Yet, far from a figure of universal mockery, Ehrlich remains a guru to the green-left. How is this
