12/13/2004 Entry: "Not why, but what we must fight"

"And the illiterati have three very, very big allies in this battle against reason. First, they have the human ego, which says that it cannot possibly have evolved from a form of life it now views as lower. Second, they have some within the religious community who seem to think that Michelangelo’s sixteenth century vision of Adam is somehow religious canon, and therefore, if evolution happened, there is no God. And they say these people are simple-minded. And, finally, they have a few professionals who have devoted their lives to proving the theory of evolution to be false. So far all they’ve been able to prove is that if we change half of what we know about the continental drift and exclude all other data (like tree ring records that go back far earlier,) it is possible for the Earth to be 6,000 years old. Also, they've invented something called a 'missing link' that has no basis in reality, but cooks up nicely with a good red herring."
Democrats: Get ready to offend the ignorant, by Avery Walker, RAW STORY, December 11?, 2004 (via Wood S Lot)

One of the best deals anywhere.

Donations to keep us going are very welome!

Our webhost, is a really good deal and is probably having a huge sale on something as we speak. If you're looking for webhosting, I recommend them very much.
