My fish has eaten your fish?

This is utter bullshit. It seems that the Discovery Institute has released another psuedo-science paper. It never ends with them does it?

Anyways, a quick summary of the paper. They took protein structures and compared them to Han (Chinese) characters with a computer program. That is it, that is the whole paper. They couldn't even account for 3D folding, they changed the topology of the proteins to make them fit the characters. An example of their bullshit work is below. At least there is an upside, they were able to write out (in 'Chinese') "My fish has eaten your fish" [the image below is not it] using proteins.


What is wrong with these people?!? Why is this ignorance allowed to continue?

WTF, Sean? WTF? This is all I can say. Why must they insist on calling this "science" and giving true science a bad name? Oh geez.
