Ad-hom, anyone?

Look at the contents:

2.1 PZ Myers in Toronto

Where does Schlafly get this from?

One thing he leaves out is the fact that it's not strictly "acceptable" xian religions that are mentioned there.

For interest's sake, RationalWiki has a list of refutations of some of Schlafly's stuff.

I love RationalWiki and often spend an hour or so pulling up random pages. I enjoy Conservawiki, as well. It's always good for a laugh.
