There is also the theory of improbable aggregation, which suggests that random atoms fly together from distant parts of the galaxy to generate new species. This theory is advocated by no one, but it is often presented by creationists when they are looking for a theory to ridicule.

Aha! Finally - my life's purpose is revealed!

Hmmm... where to start.

Ah, I have it.

Since random particles can be collided and form new 'species' of particles, it must also hold that, for example, an Einsteinium atom and an isotope of Beryllium could also collide and form a new species, and that if a duck flew into a beaver, you'd get a platypus.

So unless you're willing to argue that the duck and the beaver aren't made of atoms, here we have a clear cut case of atoms flying together and forming a new species.

Now then, if you'll excuse me, I have to go wait by the phone for the Nobel Committee's call.

Ah, a new theory arises to challenge the Darwinian stranglehold on academia -- the catastrophic collision theory of speciation. This indeed deserves equal time in the schools.
