I'll look into it. I do Mock Darwin on a daily basis!
Hows the book going Anthony?My wife and I (and Son) just laughed heartily, and mockingly when we noticed Darwin's picture is on European money.
Are you a Darwin worshiper too Lee? That makes a great deal of sense.
Why would I worship Darwin? Or Einstein, or Newton?
Rod, why would Lee worship Darwin. I personally find Evolution as something quite stupid as they first introduced the theory of the earth crusts expanding. After the geologist disproved that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expandi... they are now using the bible as evidence .However Darwin made some other discoveries that are quite valid. Just because someone makes a mistake in one theory does not mean he is the Anti Christ.
Cay does that mean Lee is possibly NOT the anti-christ? I'm not convinced. From my experience many people do worship Darwin. His message is an earthly salvation to atheists who desperately reject any mention of a possible intelligence of the universe. Even some religious people adore him and drool over his every word.
I'm proud of you Cay, you said: " I personally find Evolution as something quite stupid..."
Those are fighting words in many modern christian circles.
I am just approaching this from science as I have an extensive knowledge on Rheology or the science liquid to solid flows from non Newtonian physics(quite important to engineering in some areas such as glass). However Darwin in 1834-5 was at least 150 years early.However those that "preach" Darwin are often part of the non critical thinkers, as are many of the creationists. I favor creation, but in a strange way as I am not sure what was first created, certainly not the earth. I mean in the bible I see angels created before that, so I also quite often reject ideas of the creationist.
Rod, Oh I am sure that Lee and you are very similar, just coming from another direction.
