Last week, I read an article in The New York Times written by Medhi Hasan in which he approved of branding the creationist Duane Gish (1921-2013) with the supposed Gish Gallop technique. Hassan explained that it refers to Duane Gish publicly debating academics by purposely overwhelming them with a flurry of supposed facts resulting in his opponents not even knowing where to begin in contesting Gish’s many statements.

The U.S. president and his or her vice president are a two-person team much like two people entering into a business partnership or a little like a man and a woman becoming married. When I criticized Pence in my... Read more
