• The lessons learned | Comment is free | guardian.co.uk: I am a big fan of the "intellig ent design" teaching packs that the god-botherers are sending out to our schools. I hope the government makes them compulsory. They will be incredibly useful in teaching kids the single most important lesson that anyone learns in school. That lesson is, obviously, that adults in positions of power and responsibility often talk the most extraordinary bullshit. Either because they are kidding themselves, or because they think it is OK to mislead you in order to persuade you to behave in some desirable way, they will look you in the eye and lie to your face. The widespread knowledge of this fact is surely the cornerstone of any democratic society, far more so than anything about evolution. So I say let the creationists make asses of themselves if they want to. The smart kids will see straight through them and the thick ones were never going to believe in evolution anyway, so who cares?

• Terribly Boring 5: Time travel with Philip Blond « THE PEOPLE?S REPUBLIC OF MORTIMER: There is a critical caveat, however - it?s simply not necessary for either legislation or artificial cultural pressure to force individuals to do this. Because we do it all by ourselves. The fact that social obligations are long-standing effective societal bonds should alone tell Blond that. Human beings are, on average, naturally good at social conservatism. They literally self-select for it. I?m an abberation (and so, in other senses, is Blond) - but we?re here because society can bear the cost of abberations; they?re worth it for the innovation they bring. Still, no permissive liberal should be in any doubt about this: if the most extreme gun-toting libertarians took over the world tomorrow and set everybody ?free?, a sizeable chunk of the population would instantly organise itself into socially conservative, strictly regulated communes.
