Evolution
Idea Center
On Creation/Evolution / Intelligent Design Theory
TalkReason
provides a forum for the publication of papers with well-thought out arguments against creationism, intelligent design, and religious apologetics.
NO ANSWERS IN GENESIS
No Answers in Genesis supports science and refutes the pseudo science of creationists. The site contains articles by Australian scientists (and others) that expose the fallacies of creationism.. NAiG has an extensive list of links to material supporting biological evolution as well as links to major creationist organisations.
Evolution Pages
This site contains essays and articles which present some of the scientific evidence for evolution. It also contains refutations and critiques of creationist arguments and creationism.
EVOLUTION UPDATE
Evolution Update-- News, Feature Articles, and Bestselling Books in Evolutionary Biology; especially for students and teachers of biology.
Debunking Creation Science
Covering the controversy of removing evolution from the classroom, and replacing it with a scientific version of Creation.
Honest Intellectual Inquiry - Science
Basically lots of links to scientific sites.
Agnosticism
Smashing the Sacred Myths
One of the easiest-to-read summaries of evolution on the Internet. Extends the theory of evolution to include the rise of intelligent life, the conscious struggle for power and wealth, and the development of advanced technology.
Discusses the possible existence of God from a purely agnostic point of view. Includes speculative histories of the various religions, the relationship between religion and politics, and need to establish an unchallengeable theoretical foundation for justice based upon the democratic decisions of free and educated people.
Atheism
The Atheists Guide To Religion
The site features The Atheists Guide To Religion, a history to help atheists and agnostics understand (if not appreciate) religion. Explains why it is not simply an irrational idea to be fought, but an instinct to be overcome. From evolution to ethics, this has immense implications for personal development. Also covers the triune brain and why rational ethics cannot be based on religion.
Biology and General Interest
Sternotherus carinatus is the name of this particular species of Tortoise:

Takashi Hisada lives in Japan and joined our web ring. He speaks fluent Japanese so it is difficult to communicate. I visited the site and found some beautiful and fascinating photographs of what I am presuming are his pet turtles / tortoises. Many of them, like the one above are exotic species. Perhaps native to Asia or Japan.

Creationism and Intelligent Design
Astronomy and Origins
A website discussing the origins debate in astronomy. Written from a creationist perspective, and aimed at a skeptical audience. This site is updated every few months and includes articles on cosmology, astronomy, and planetary science. Most articles address specific issues in origins science, but general astronomy is also discussed. (There is also a regularly-updated page with astronomical
images accompanied by brief descriptions.)
Origin of the Human Species by Dennis Bonnette
Explains and promotes my book, "Origin of the Human Species," a philosophical analysis of the theory of evolution covering many topics ranging from comparison of creationism to evolution, nature of biological and philosophic species, ape-language studies, extraterrestrial life, paleoanthropological data vs. Adam and Eve, age of man and the cosmos, and so forth. Too broad to explain in detail here.
Creation And/Or Evolution: An Islamic Perspective
Describes an Islamic theory of creation that is not incompatible with evolution. He accomplishes this by weaving together insights from modern science, the Qur’an, and pre-Renaissance Muslim history.
Spiritual and Philosophy
Religious Tolerance
Religious web site which promotes religious freedom, tolerance and diversity as positive cultural values, and attempting to explain the full range of religious beliefs in North America, from Asatru to Zoroastrianism, including Christianity, Hinduism, Wicca etc. Describing all viewpoints on controversial religious topics objectively and fairly. Covering everything from abortion access to equal rights and protections for homosexuals and bisexuals, including same-sex marriage, and dozens of other "hot" topics.

A graphic, disturbing memoir, October 8, 2002
Reviewer: Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
Anatomy Of A Life Possessed is the personal memoir and testimony of Maria Ferrara Pema, a woman who was possessed and tortured by a Catholic priest for 27 years. Anatomy Of A Life Possessed is a graphic, disturbing memoir that hides no secrets and spares no sharpness in its accusations. With today's focus on pastoral pedophilia, it is an unhappy and overlooked truth that most sexual, physical, and emotional abuse and exploitation by priests is perpetrated against their female parishioners -- and always has been. Anatomy Of A Life Possessed is raw, severe, and unforgettable reading.

Jim Lippard
disord.org is in LEAVING THE FOLD, he's an open ended atheist. And a college educated philosopher and freethought writer/debater. Discordianism is one of those "fake funny" religions like the "church of the sub genius." It's not a religion that takes itself seriously at all.

Robert Anton Wilson
Wilson wrote this:
I don't believe anything, but I have many suspicions.
I strongly suspect that a world "external to," or at least independent of, my senses exists in some sense.
I also suspect that this world shows signs of intelligent design, and I suspect that such intelligence acts via feedback from all parts to all parts and without centralized sovereignity, like Internet; and that it does not function hierarchically, in the style an Oriental despotism, an American corporation or Christian theology..
I somewhat suspect that Theism and Atheism both fail to account for such decentralized intelligencce, rich in circular-causal feedback.
I more-than-half suspect that all "good" writing, or all prose and poetry that one wants to read more than once, proceeds from a kind of "alteration in consciousness," i.e. a kind of controlled schizophrenia. [Don't become alarmed -- I think good acting comes from the same place.]
I sometimes suspect that what Blake called Poetic Imagination expresses this exact thought in the language of his age, and that visits by"angels" and "gods" states it an even more archaic argot.
These suspicions have grown over 72 years, but as a rather slow and stupid fellow I do not have the chutzpah to proclaim any of them as certitudes. Give me another 72 years and maybe I'll arrive at firmer conclusions.
