Ouch, looks like someone's sacred cow just got pin pricked. I would email more but I am on the way to burn a witch.
Just kidding.

If evolution is the final answer to the origin of life, then it will survive scrutiny. It will survive criticism. It will survive being questioned.

What is happening in Kansas isn't a slide into the dark ages, but an opening of a window to inquiry and intellectual freedom.

No, no, no.... the only people who can be permitted into the hallowed halls of the scientific Hierarchy are those who accept the darwiniian dogma decisively.

Surely you know that is how knowledge advances? The very essence of education. The veritable litmus test of learning.

Are you really Irish. I mean, from Ireland?

Evolution doesn't say anything about the origin of life.

Evolution address change in life since it developed, not its origin.

And evolution has already survived 150 years of scientific scrutiny. It was being supported in all of the scientific tests, so the folks in Kansas had to change the rules of science.

Inquiry? Intellectual Freedom?

We now know the answer to all questions: God did it.

End of inquiry.
