Grades awarded for trashing websites

There ought to be a deeper media probe into this.

William Dembski, a professor at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, is a proponent of "intelligent design" pseudoscience. One mathematician says Dembski's work is so unscholarly that it's "written in Jell-O." Bill Dembski is also known for reporting speeches he disagrees with to the Department of Homeland Security.

Dumbski's anti-people ideology is now becoming evident again.

Dembski is awarding his students grades for cluttering Internet message forums with troll posts supporting creationism. Twenty percent of an undergrad student's final grade comes from writing 10 posts promoting "intelligent design" on "hostile" websites.

When you go on a message forum and see a bunch of kooky posts, now we know who's behind it: probably some educrat assigning students to troll for credit. That is, if it's not the Republican National Committee paying someone.

People put too much effort into putting together usable websites to have someone like Bill Dembski come along and ruin them. So keep an eye out for strange posts on message forums.
