The eye's intricate structure has long been a focal point in the creationism vs evolutionism debate, serving as a key example in the argument of irreducible complexity. More recently, methods of simulating the evolution of the eye have emerged, which claim to provide significant support for Darwinism. Who is right?

A recent article on the website of a Romanian news aggregator claims that prayer protects against psychotronic attacks because it "raises the brain's operating frequencies". The article is a prime example of an editorial genre that proliferates precisely because of the absurdity of its claims, not in spite of them.
