I am highly disappointed I can't read the rest of it online. If the rest of it is as genius as the moon chapter, it is well worth reading.

That was a great laugh :lol:
I feel like this textbook is making Christianity synonymous with stupidity. >:(
Only if it's fundamentalist Christianity.Quote:

Fail. Basic, basic, basic physics. Gravity gets weaker as distance is increased, by their logic why are we all on the surface of the earth instead of hurdling toward the sun?

Ha! Physics pwn.
Pretty much every page of this can be pwned by physics or some other branch of real science.
This is true, but he is going to be an engineer, so as long as he doesn't switch his notation, he should be fine.Quote:

In the meanwhile, I'll just tell his professors to print out all of his assignments and exams on red paper. Saves ink.
It's like we're moving backwards.
Awesome.
Good news everyone! There's a 3rd edition which just came out a couple of years ago. Unfortunately, we can't see a preview chapter. I'm sure it just continues the amazingness of the 2nd edition, though.
There's also a Space and Earth Science text published in 2005 which has a preview. Let's take a look at what gems of knowledge you can learn from this.
Did you know that anything that occurred without a person present using his direct senses to observe cannot be considered science? Unfortunately I still had to take chemistry, physics, and biology in high school.
Did you know that the definition of science is "what scientists do"?
Did you know that evolutionists have never actually tried to prove evolution scientifically?
Did you know that "scientism" is the crazy religion that believes science is the only path to truth?
Did you know that "theistic evolutionists" are guilty of twisting facts to believe what they want? Something no true Young Earth Creationist does!
Did you know that the Bible is 100%, entirely consistent with itself, unlike evolutionist theories? I dare you to spot even the tiniest contradiction!
Did you know scientists are guilty of circular reasoning because they falsely rely on carbon dating? (relying on the Bible as both the assumption and conclusion isn't circular reasoning because they say so)
Did you know that this is an example of good reasoning? "1. All that the Bible teaches is true, and therefore all scientific theories should be tested by its teachings. And 2. The Bible teaches that it is the Word of God and should govern all areas of our lives. Therefore 1." IT EVEN HAS ARROWS GOING IN A CIRCLE BETWEEN THE TWO. This is within a page of the discussion of circular reasoning being a logical fallacy! I... *head explodes*
This one was mostly about science vs. faith, so not quite as entertaining as the first one linked to in the OP because it lacked as much terrible science. But there's still plenty of awful things.
This is funny but now I want to read the first chapter - where is it? All you linked was how to buy the crap
I had the same issue. Though, I could read the latest one that was linked. And I... *head explodes next to Raistlin's*Quote:
