While you take a moment out to consider that, could somebody tell me
why these fundies always jump on Darwin? Darwin? Finding flaws in
Darwin's theory and concluding that evolution doesn't exist is a lot
like concluding that Franklin and his kite got electricity wrong, so
today, informed people know that electricity is a false concept.


They overlook the fact that Darwin didn't invent evolution, that was
accepted fact. His theory addressed the mechanism at work. My mother
took high school biology in East Texas in the thirties, I took it in
Des Moines in the sixties, and both classes had one factual page, on
Darwin and evolution.
