The often anti-science "right" has a new journal devoted to issues of science and technology. The journal is published by the Ethics and Public Policy Center, a Washington based Christian think tank. There are a lot of important things to think about on these topics, and religous folks and conservatives are important voices to be heard on such matters. Let's only hope that closed-minded Ludditism doesn't come to rule the day at this new publication. A sneak peek at the contents of issue 1:
