How ‘bout a Doris Day resolution instead ?
Darwin Day, eh? I’ll celebrate it with all the vigor that I do for Marty Luther King (Junior) Day.
We used to have a holiday for Lincoln’s birthday. Charles Darwin was born on the same day. Why not get rid of Presidents’ day?
The congressman with the letter (D) next to his name needs to read this:
Euro-Media Concede Global Warming Has Ended Models Were Wrong Scientists Are Baffled!

Here’s some choice words from Darwin
......
Thus the weak members of civilised societies propagate their kind.
No one who has attended to the breeding of domestic animals will doubt that this must be highly injurious to the race of man.
It is surprising how soon a want of care, or care wrongly directed, leads to the degeneration of a domestic race; but excepting in the case of man himself, hardly any one is so ignorant as to allow his worst animals to breed.
.....
Wonder why this quote by Darwin’s book “The Descent of Man” isn’t mentioned in the Resolution?
He proposes some “evolution” resolution and then in the middle throws in some loony toon global warming crap;
“Demands that the advancement of science be protected from those unconcerned with the adverse impacts of global warming and climate change.”
So this guy believes that it is in the interest of “science” to ignore “science”.
It will still be a mail day, but the mailman will be allowed to just throw all the letters into the air and let nature take it from there.
If it’s a day for stupid people to off themselves amusingly, then I’m all for it.
I'm sorry to say that he was my congress critter for 10 years until redistricting -- confirming everything I suspected about Ph.D.s working outside of their chosen field, he is a clueless doofus.
We need to get another member of the House to amend the bill to the “Darwin Awards Day” bill and amend the bloviation to indicate the intention to honor those who take their genes out of the shallow polluted end of the gene pool before passing them on.
"Calcium absorption lines and solar activity: a systematic program of observations" -- has a hell of a lot to do with molecular biology or genetics or cladistics, eh?
Wonder where this chap stands on Gore-bull warming?
Cheers!
“provides humanity with a logical and intellectually compelling explanation for the diversity of life on Earth
????????????????? A dubious assertion. But how about a compelling explanation for the appearance of life.
Every time a Democrat or a Liberal GOP opens their trap....its Darwin Day
Will there be a Bible burning ceremony?
How about a “Famous People Burning in Hell” Day?
See, the resolution is hardly about Darwin. Not when you toss in the bullcrap junk science of global warming - which isto be ‘protected’ from those that don’t drink the kool-aid, and then attacks people who believe in intelligent design.
Sorry, topping the atheist sundae is the fact they link into the American Humanist Association. This is all just a shove it in your face attempt. Hopefully falls flat on their face. It’s all about slamming the Christians. Darwin gave them a phony foundation that undermined millions of peoples’ faith, professors today say their main goals is to destroy the faith of students in their classes, and the Humanist movement has always been aimed at taking Christianity down, never a good word about it, never doing anything without taking a swipe at the Christians.
If they were genuinely serious, they have many, many better people they could have picked to have a scientific day for.
My candidate for the Darwin Day Award?
The Republicans who support amnesty, thereby guaranteeing their own demise as a political party.
We actually pay these loafers for this?
Darwin Day? Really? How about Marx Day next then? OK? Then Stalin Day, and after that, Hitler Day? Yeah! And let’s not forget the aborted baby day? We’ll just slip it into where Mother’s Day used to be:)
