Trolling does pay

From William Dembski’s course:

You have three things to do: (1) take the final exam (worth 40% of your grade); (2) write a 3,000-word essay on the theological significance of intelligent design (worth 40% of your grade); (3) provide at least 10 posts defending ID that you’ve made on “hostile” websites, the posts totalling 2,000 words, along with the URLs (i.e., web links) to each post (worth 20% of your grade).

This would explain the proliferation of creationists trolling in science blogs.

  1. I wonder if staying on a science site to argue for ID while getting a new *sshole ripped open courtesy of the more intelligent posters would get students extra marks.

    Sound like they should rename the course "Being anoying for no real purpose 101"

  5. It's one thing to troll sites of "the other side". It's another thing to get actual college credits for doing it.

    Exactly.

    This is just too good (funny) to be true.
