Please join me in welcoming a new Atheist blogroll member, ...forms most beautiful...
In his own words:
Peter Buckland of the blog ...forms most beautiful... keeps the torch burning for materialism, reason, skeptical logic, and irreverent atheism. ...forms most beautiful... gets its name from the final sentence of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species and much of the blog's content is devoted to responding to creationist actions across the country, shredding the arguments of the always odious intelligent design movement, keeping up to date on evolution, and occasional wanderings into comics or classic 90s death metal.
Posts run from the short and pithy to the extended and intense. A fine example of Buckland's skeptical style comes across in this post, "Think with your brain. It's your only choice" where he responds to a fundamentalist Christian who kept telling him to "think with his heart" and cited chapter and verse from the Bible:
Just because we have intuitions about things isn't evidence of the veracity of those intuitions. It's evidence that we have those intuitions and should see how accurate and/or probable they are. Sometimes we are right. Sometimes not. The scientific method helps us do that and do it across the spectrum of experience.
So give it a visit and feel free to leave comments.
