Post Penn and Teller's "Bullshit!"

It's the name of Penn and Teller's new series, and it looks good ladies and gents. Apparently, this is their upcoming examination of pseudoscience topics. One of the upcoming topics, creationism.

Coming soon from Showtime.

(I'll also post this on Media and Pop Culture, it applies to both)

Changed title and added this post to kick it up on the theory that just plain "Bullshit!" failed to engage anyone's interest.

I love these guys! See their show in Vegas if you can. They hold none of their atheist views back. It's a lot like their TV specials, except that they will say things like, "Religion is a fraud" and "Now we know there is no god..." I'll never forget the sighs and gasps from the crowd everytime they said something like that. I loved it! I once heard in an interview that they base their entertainment on two things: 1. The Amazing Randi (who is a close friend of theirs) and 2. Bob Dylan. Long live Penn and Teller!
