The Victorian Skeptics are very proud to be a major sponsor for the 2004 STAV Science Talent Search. (Prep-12) We look forward to meeting many of the winners at the upcoming awards day and intend to display photographs from the event as well as a list of sponsored winners on this site.
(Creationism articles)
Vic Skeptics Committee member and Australian Skeptics Life Member Peter Hogan has cracked it for a mention in “Prayer News“, the official newsletter of the Creationist/Christian Fundamentalist organization “Answers in Genesis“.
Peter had an article in Australasian Science (Vol. 24 No. 1) warning readers that AiG was trying to get its supporters to donate subscriptions to Creation and TJ magazines to local and school libraries. Peter suggested it was important to make sure these magazines, which are anti-evolution, be classified as religion, and not as science, as AiG suggested.
He also jokingly suggested that a suitable classification would be “Myths & Legends“. AiG have magnanimously agreed to relegate their products to the “Myths and Legends” shelves – as soon as Evolution is also treated as a myth.
