Pat Robertson Bad Mouths Haiti

Pat Robertson, the loud-mouthed American televangelist said that Haitians made a "pact to the Devil" in order to liberate themselves from the French and, along with their voodoo practices, indirectly attributed the earthquake to the consequences of the Haitian people being "cursed".

Why would kill people like the Archbishop of Port-au-Prince or those who were trying to make a difference there such as Yvonne Martin, a nurse who was helping with mobile clinics?

We know that the earthquake was caused by pressure buildup from strike-slip fault that is 10 km under the island. It was not attributed to God, Satan or by any post hoc argument.

Avatar

I went to see the movie Avatar before Christmas and it was packed. It was only the third time that I have gone to a movie theatre recently, I saw Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince this summer and Star Wars: The Clone Wars last summer. I was amazed the CGI and 3D effects of Avatar and made me a believer of the 3D technology, that it is not gimmicky.

EvoWiki - The Evolution Wiki

EvoWiki was a wiki devoted to explaining evolution and debunking creationist claims. The link, I have provided, is from the last Internet Archive link on March 2008. Due to constant vandalism and a major interal error, the web site is no longer live. The site provides excellent rebuttals and fallacies to creationists' claims on evolution. Just be aware that there are no images on-site, sometimes it takes time for it to load and you cannot do a search.
