Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

Awright, so I’m prepping a couple of computers for customers of mine locally (no, sweet Denita, I haven’t forgotten about you guys – in fact, your machine’s pretty much done, save for a security update here & there), when Nightline&#160 comes on and it’s Chapter 21,985 in the Creation v. Evolution fight.

And for the Fox News Channel debate portion of the program – interesting how they’ve suddenly decided that if they can mimic the format, they think they’ll get Fox’s viewership, hm? (snicker) – they dust off this evolutionist fanatic from Florida State to go up against this nerd-type from Baylor.&#160 And the fanatic is laying into the nerd, accusing him of having a religious bias and “oh, you can’t possibly believe that ‘intelligent design’ isn’t a code word for (gasp) Creationism!!!”

And the nerd is giving it his best shot, but it’s clear that Georgie-Porgie Snuffleupagus has carefully (cough) orchestrated this debate so as to make the evolutionist fanatic look like the more suave, the more debonair, the smoother, the more credible of the two.

Memo to the evolutionist morons:&#160 You people – yes, I said “you people”; get over it – have been pushing this evolution bullshit on the masses now for years.&#160 Decades, even.&#160 Ever since Snopes.&#160 And you have demanded&#160 that we believe it because, after all, it must be true!!!!!&#160 Science proves it!!!!!

Yet, for all your blathering and bleating…you bastards still haven’t proven jack shit.&#160 You have not shown us the species of animal that suddenly changed itself into a completely different species, for example.&#160 You have not, despite&#160 your natterings to the contrary, shown us what you call “The Missing Link&#153”.&#160 And when you’re questioned on the slightest jot or tittle of your screeds, your response is to malign the character of the questioner as being “one of those Creationist fanatics” – as if it were some sort of bad thing to believe in God in the first place.

Sounds to me like you’ve got this thing called “evolution” to the point where it’s, say…ahhhhh…a religion&#160 for you.&#160 Fancy that.

But for all your sniveling on the subject, the fact – yes, the fact&#160 – remains…it’s still a theory.&#160 Just as it has always been – a theory.&#160 And just as it will always be – a damned-fool theory.

Because you can’t prove it.&#160 You couldn’t before; you can’t now; you won’t be able to in the future.

So.&#160 Given that, for lo these last few decades, you people have been shoving this theory&#160 down our throats…isn’t it about time that maybe – just maybe – some other theory had its moment in the sun?

Say, the theory of “intelligent design”?

It’s certainly every bit as valid as this bucket of warm piss you people have been advocating all this time.
