Black women's hair has been a lightning rod in discussions about race, class and social conformity dating back to the days of slavery, when some black women wore scarves to hide their "naps." Today, the debate still rages about what having "good hair" means in the black community, even serving as the subject of an upcoming documentary produced by comedian Chris Rock called, appropriately, "Good Hair. Our hair-grooming habits are reflective of our history, and it affects how we go about our daily lives," she said. "Thankfully, I learned that I am much more than my hair, and I take better care of my hair now." "Natural hair is as manageable as relaxed hair," she said. "Once you learn proper grooming techniques and find suitable products for yourself, you will find that taking care of na...

There's a new (fruit)fly in the ointment of Darwinism, a theory that religious belief contributes to natural selection and benefits human adaptation. (Darwin gets religion.)
