The people of Haiti deserve our prayers and our aid. Here are some organisations that are taking donations for disaster relief.

I have recently been listening to some dialog on the topic of Creation and Evolution, and have generally found it very frustrating. It seems to me that the proponents of each view are, on the whole, talking past each other.
