I wholeheartedly second the recommendation of Abusing Science, and add to it a more recent book by Dr. Kitcher, Living with Darwin: Evolution, Design, and the Future of FaithIn addition to updating the last chapter of Abusing Science, Dr. Kitcher gives a concise and highly readable history of creationism and shows why science rejected it in favor of the ToE. This history is particularly valuable because every argument that any YEC, OEC or IDer makes has been refuted long ago, and Dr. Kitcher shows how.

This reminds me of a theory that I've had for some time. We're running out of famous people.Famous people die every week, sometimes several in a week. But who's the last famous person that was born? I can't recall any, although I certainly admit I might have missed one or two along the way. I'd venture to guess that for any given month, the number of famous people who died outnumbered those who were born by perhaps a factor of as much as ten. At that rate, we're bound to run out of famous people sooner or later.
