In this Sunday's Doonesbury strip, Garry Trudeau neatly -- and hilariously -- poses the most pressing problem of being a Creationist: if you don't believe in evolution, do you want to be treated with modern antibiotics, or old fashioned ones that treated yesterday's pre-evolved bugs? Link (Thanks, Alex!)

Update: Brad Templeton points out that this is a re-run from last year. Still funny!

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
