In a move stunning both for its stupidity and arrogance, the Institute of Creation Research - yeah, the group behind Answers in Genesis and other "creation science" fluff - has filed suit against the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board because the THECB denied them the right to issue MS degrees in science education. Timothy Sandefur covers this nonsense here and also provides links to pieces by Tony Whitson and Steve Schafersman of Texas Citizens for Science in his followup on The Panda's Thumb.

Just when you think that state is temporarily safe from Dumbth attacks, here they come again.
