Re: paleonet Living Pterosaurs soon on display



I totally agree with James...The most negative point of science particulary 
palaeontogy is that we are "on the horse!"

Sorry all, but this site is not a hoax -- it is serious.  Explore the links 
on this page and you will find it is real.  Creationism in the USA is 
growing stronger every day, and these people are able to create an internet 
presence that lends them an air of legitimacy to uneducated people.  Most of 
the people who hit this site have never held a scientific journal in their 
hands.  Evolution, like the other sciences, is cloaked in the secrecy of 
scientific literature that are not widely available, and must compete with 
fundamentalist churches that drive their message home with Sunday school, 
home schooling and school boards that are infiltrated by religious 
advocates.  A few web sites like Mike Everhart's wonderful "Oceans of 
Kansas" site bring science into the reach of the layman -- but how many 
paleontologists consider it a part of their job to create public access web 
sites?  I once thought the internet would give every individual access to 
knowledge -- but it also gives every crackpot a chance to reach millions.    
More than ever before, we need an  electorate that understands the 
scientific problems that threaten our world.   I challenge every member of 
this board to fight creationism by creating their own web sites, and keep 
these people from sliding into ignorance -- which is no joke!
