Yes...even "tooth level surveillance" will be available, perhaps mandated, under Obamacare.  See quote below from article linked.

"Before Obama’s Act of Supremacy did the English language ever have need for such a phrase? "Tooth-level surveillance": from the Declaration of Independence to dentured servitude in a mere quarter-millennium." See HERE.

The Greatest Intellectual Swindle

Darwin perpetrated the greatest intellectual swindle in the history of ideas. Nature has no power to choose. All natural selection does is narrow the variability of incidental change by weeding out the less fit. What’s more, it acts on the spur of the moment, based solely on what the environment at the present time deems fit and thus without any prevision of future possibilities. And yet this blind process, when coupled with another blind process, namely, incidental change, is supposed to produce designs that exceed the capacities of any designers in our experience. No wonder Daniel Dennett, in Darwin’s Dangerous Idea, credits Darwin with "the single best idea anyone ever had." Getting design without a designer is a good trick indeed.

The Art of Building Life

...the art of shipbuilding is not in the wood that constitutes the ship. The art of composing sonnets is not in the letters of the alphabet. Likewise, the art of making statues is not in the stone out of which statues are made. Each of these cases requires a designer. So too, the theory of intelligent design contends that the art of building life is not in the physical stuff that constitutes life but requires a designer. (Wm Dembski, The Design Revolution, pg 133)

For the Record

Quote: Wm Dembski, “The Design Revolution”, pgs 20, & 25

Regarding Intelligent Design: “...the public is informed that intelligent design is religion masquerading as science or Creationism in a Cheap Tuxedo (the title of a newspaper headline). The nature and, in particular, the moral characteristics of that intelligence constitute a separate inquiry. Intelligent design has theological implications, but it is not a theological enterprise. Theology does not own intelligent design. Intelligent design is not an evangelical Christian thing, or a generically Christian thing, or even a generically theistic thing. ...As a consequence, intelligent design does not stand or fall with whether one can furnish a satisfying theodicy.”

I Got the Blues...Again

Two years ago my children gave a guitar to me for my birthday. Fifty years ago I played at the guitar and haven’t played since then. I never mastered the instrument then and certainly haven’t this time around...but the video does prove the old adage that "you can teach an old dog...old tricks". Maybe that isn’t exactly the way it goes...so perhaps what we need is a new...old adage. At any rate, this video is the fruit of my recent labors on an old yet classic song made famous by one of my early musical heros..Bill Doggett and Honky Tonk Part 1.  I do love the "Blues".  Remember this post from 2009?...Click Blues

This cartoon I did for COP-15 (12-15-09) is just as relevant for COP-17 which is underway in South Africa. David Fischler has a great post worthy of your attention. Click this LINK to read about the latest shenanigans (mischief, deceit, trickery) from the "warmists agenda".
