Miscellaneous articles

 

A Question of God -- in .pdf format.  This article was written in around 2005 to explain my position on god and atheism at the time.  Views change.  I haven't read it recently, but it is a fairly in-depth explanation of my evolution up to that point.

Bad Math -- this article (in .pdf format) was written in response to Larry Summers', President of Harvard at the time, and now an Obama administration official, claim that women were innately inferior to men and that's why they were not represented in higher numbers on the Harvard natural science faculties.  This article discusses the flaws in the  mathematical argument made in support of his bigoted position.

School Board Questionnaire -- this questionnaire (responses in .pdf) was originally posted by the Eagle Forum!  From time to time I think I don't have enough to do (obviously) and contemplate running for school board, because clearly people like those from the Eagle Forum need some competition.  I've never done it, but the questions proved useful for expressing my views regarding separation of church and state as it relates to the public schools.  Again, these were written some years ago.
