. . . and get a few chuckles in the process. This site claims to be scientific and to use "scientific evidence" to prove creationism. More accurately, however, they try to disprove and discredit evolutionary theories and evolutionary science instead of making a credible claim for their own beliefs. There is also no mention (that I could find) of flying spaghetti monsterism (or Pastafarianism for the enlightened). Interestingly, the author of the site (based on a book he also wrote) "received a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) where he was a National Science Foundation Fellow. He has taught college courses in physics, mathematics, and computer science". While a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering is a worthy feat, it doesn't sound to me like it makes one credible in such an area as evolutionary theory, biology, or even in creationism. Dr. Phil, douchebag as he is, at least has a Ph.D. in a field related to where he works.
