Recently, William Dembski, the tireless crusader against scientific rigor, and Michael Shermer, one of my favorite authors, were involved in a debate at Bridgewater College, a small liberal arts school affiliated with the Church of the Brethren. It was hostile territory for Michael Shermer, who is used to being outnumbered. I remember quite well his taking on four different guests on Coast to Coast AM, debating each of them on some psuedoscientific nonsense.

While I didn’t get to be there, of course, I thought it was interesting to see two different takes on the debate.

Panda’s Thumb has a nice write up here: Shermer and Dembski in Bridgewater

And on the ID side, we have a writeup from Dembski’s blog “Uncommon Descent”: “Bill Dembski is world famous” says creationism’s prodigal son Michael Shermer
