How about Tylenol for your child’s cold or fever? How about Tylenol ADVERTISING to rev up a parent’s anxiety?

Check out this current website from Tylenol. You’ll see that McNeil (maker of Tylenol) has heroically and voluntarily removed all of these medicines from the market:

Concentrated TYLENOL® Infants' Drops Plus Cold Concentrated TYLENOL® Infants' Drops Plus Cold & Cough PediaCare® Infant Dropper Decongestant PediaCare® Infant Dropper Long-Acting Cough PediaCare® Infant Drops Decongestant (containing pseudoephedrine) PediaCare® Infant Dropper Decongestant & Cough PediaCare® Infant Drops Decongestant & Cough (containing pseudoephedrine)

Before We Congratulate Ourselves On Our Tolerance and Maturity

The disturbing part of this story is the reactions of so-called medical professionals to this couple's situation and decision. Now there are two ways to look at this. The one that might make more sense (though certainly no more palatable) is that these physicians et al are concerned with Insurance…

Biblically Correct Tours of Science Museums

According to this ABC News report, the Denver Museum of Nature and Science allows private tours for children so that the displays can be properly interpreted to keep them from accepting the displayed, scientifically derived explanations as true. Yes, the actual science displays are being specially interpreted to support Young…

Exposing the Darwinist Conspiracy

It seems to me that Darwinism is to this election cycle as Family Values and Abortion have been to previous ones. There has been a recent rash of books and now a movie all pointing out how a conspiracy of elites are following the Darwin manifesto to create a facist atheist state.

Am I overstating it? Read this criticism (including their own release blurb) of Ben Stein’s new movie, “Expelled”. This movie about how bully tactics are what keeps the theory of evolution uncontested is scheduled for a mid-April release. But is already playing to mega-churches and closed-door sessions of school boards and state legislatures. Mainstream press has not yet officially had access to it.

Legislatures? According to NowPress.com in this short article:

The invitation to “Expelled” is just for legislators and their spouses, along with legislative aides. The press and public is excluded.

House Minority Leader Dan Gelber, D-Miami Beach, asked House general counsel Jeremiah Hawkes if that’s legal — since Florida law requires open meetings whenever two or more lawmakers meet to discuss pending business. Hawkes replied that, as long as they just watch the film and don’t discuss the issue or arrange any future votes, it’s technically legal.

Why? Because Florida just modified its education policy to require the Evolution to be mentioned in biology classes as a Scientific Theory. Two representatives have now introduced bills that would allow teachers to present discussion of “Intelligent Design” in science classes. The Florida Family Policy Council (one of …

I don’t like Trivia Nights

[Warning: This Post is rated “R” for Rant] 

I’ve been to several Trivia Nights, so I do have some basis for opining on this topic. It’s time that I made my feelings absolutely clear: I do not like trivia nights.  I don’t see the point of trivia nights.  Trivia Nights are things that keep people from having good conversations. I will explain further.

I understand that Trivia Nights are often held to raise money for good causes.  I don’t have any problem with raising money for good causes.  Actually, I would happily pay a reasonable sum of money in order to not have to sit through another Trivia Night.  I will pay my fair share to help raise that money for that good cause, as long as I don’t have to attend Trivia Night.

I should also make it clear that I sometimes enjoy trivia.  Occasionally, I find myself reading a list of trivia questions, the kind of list where I can immediately check the answer.  In that way, I can review dozens of questions per minute, until I’ve had my fill of trivia (which is usually a minute or two). Not a bad diversion, once in awhile.

What I don’t like, however, is an intentional onslaught of slow-motion trivia.  Trivia Nights consist of intentional onslaughts of slow-motion trivia.  Each question is read slowly to a room filled with dozens tables that are each filled with people.  The tables compete against each other.  Each question is simultaneously considered for a …
